x+y=-4. find the y intercept for the equation above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = -4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the y intercept is the point where the curve intercepts the y axis. on the y axis, x = 0 so substitute x = 0 in the equation and you get y = -4 so the y intercept is (0,-4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is the x intercept?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why don't you try explaining to me what an x intercept is based on the explanation I gave you above? It will help you learn better

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0,0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4,0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont really know sure

OpenStudy (aroub):

if u want to find the x-intercept u put y=0 and when u want to find the y-intercept u put x=0 and another way which is y=mx+b and b is the y-intercept
