Answer:

Therefore the required point where it crosses y-axis is (0 , 4)

Explanation:

Given:


y=x+4 ...............Equation of line

Intercepts:

The line which intersect on x-axis and y-axis are called intercepts.

There are two intercepts:

x-intercept: The line which intersect at x-axis. So when the line intersect at x-axis Y coordinate is zero.

y-intercept: The line which intersect at y-axis. So when the line intersect at y-axis X coordinate is zero.

For a line crosses Y-axis we have,


y=x+4

Put x = 0 in above equation we get


y=0+4=4\\y=4

Therefore the required point where it crosses y-axis is (0 , 4)
