Answer:
x-intercepts: (2,0), (4,0)
y-intercepts: (0,-8)

Explanation:
To find the x intercept(s), you must compute where y=0. So solve 0= -x^2 + 6x - 8. So, the x intercepts are: (2,0) and (4,0) since the solutions to the mentioned equation are x=2 and x=4. To find the y intercept(s) compute what is y when x=0. In this case, when x=0, y=-8. So the only y intercept is (0,-8).
