Question

Graph the equation y=-X – 2 using the intercepts.

Answer 1

y intercept = (0,-2)

x intercept = (-2,0)

Explanation:

For y intercept, plug 0 for x

y = (0) - 2

y = -2

y intercept = -2

For x intercept, plug 0 for y

(0) = -x - 2

Move -2 to other side

-x = 2

Since x is negitave, make 2 negitave

x = -2

x intercept = -2
