Answer:

I don't know how to find the x-intercept, but the y-intercept is (-2).

Explanation:

I went by the formula: y-mx+c where m is the gradient, and c is the y-intercept.

3x - y = 2

3x = y + 2

3x - 2 = y

y = 3x - 2

As you can see, 3 is the gradient so and -2 is the y-intercept. Normally, we just try to make the equation into something that follows this format (y = something x with a constant variable)
