Answer:

The x intercept is 1/2

The y intercept is - 4

Explanation:

y = 8x - 4

First to find the y intercept let x = 0

Substitute the value of x into the equation

That's

y = 8(0) - 4

y = - 4

The y intercept is - 4

To find the x intercept let y = 0

Substitute the value of y into the equation

that's

8x - 4 = 0

8x = 4

Divide both sides by 8

x = 1/2

The x intercept is 1/2

Hope this helps you
