Answer:

x- intercept = 3 , y- intercept = - 3

Explanation:

y = x - 3

to find the x- intercept let y = 0 ( where line crosses x- axis )

0 = x - 3 ( add 3 to both sides )

3 = x

then x- intercept = 3

to find the y- intercept let x = 0 ( where the line crosses the y- axis )

y = 0 - 3 = - 3

then y- intercept = - 3
