Question

Determine the intercepts of the line.
Y-intercept(__ , __)
X-intercept(__,__)

Answer 1

Y-intercept: (0,-6)

X-intercept: (-8,0)

Explanation:

In order to find an intercept, you have to know the difference in the two axis. The intercept is just where the plot line hits the axis. On the top, left side, you can see that the blue line his the black x-axis at -8 over to the right but it doesn't mover down. This means the x-intercept hits at (-8,0). On the upper, right side, you can see that the blue line his the black y-axis by not moving sideways, but it does go -6 down. This means that the y-intercept would be (0,-6).

Answer 2

Y-intercepts: (0,6)

X-intercepts: (8,0)
