Question

6x-y=-6 determine the x- and y-intercepts

Answer 1

The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis, or where y=0.
Therefore, 6x-0=-6 (sub in zero for y)
x=-1 (divide by the coefficient)
So the x-intercept is (-1,0)
The y-intercept is almost identical, but you instead have x=0
6(0)-y=-6 (sub in x=0)
y=6 (divide by coefficient)
and you receive the y-intercept (0,-6)
