Question

What is the x and y intercept of 2x+8=y

Answer 1

x intercept: 0 y intercept:8

Explanation:

the y intercept is the value added or the one not multiplied by a variable

Answer 2

x- intercept = - 4 , y- intercept = 8

Explanation:

To find the x- intercept, let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

2x + 8 = 0 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 4

To find the y- intercept , let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

2(0) + 8 = y

0 + 8 = y , then

y = 8
