Question

Which of the following are the x and y intercepts of the equation 4x - 2y = 8?


(3, 0) and (0, 4)

(2, 0) and (0, 4)

(-2, 0) and (0, -4)

(2, 0) and (0, -4)

Answer 1

to find the x-intercept, set y=0
to find the y-intercept, set x=0

for y=0 ----> 4x=8
x=2
for x=0-----> -2y=8
y=-4

(2, 0) and (0, -4)
