Answer:

(see explanation below)

Explanation:

The x-intercept is where the line intersects with the x-axis. If you look at the given line in the coordinate plane, you can see that the line intersects the x-axis at (-2, 0). Therefore, the x-intercept is -2.

The y-intercept is where the line intersects with the y-axis. If you look at the given line in the coordinate plane, you can see that the line intersects the y-axis at (0, 4). Therefore, the y-intercept (also represented by the variable b) is 4.
