Question

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of the equation: -2x + y = 4

Answer 1

If you want to find the x-intercept you susbstitute y by 0 and if you want to find the y-intercept you substitute the x by 0

& you'll solve it like this:

-2x + y = 4

The x-intercept:

-2x+(0)=4
-2x=4
x=-2

=>(-2,0)

The y-intercept:

-2(0)+y=4
y=4

=> (0,4)

So the answer is (A)
