Question

Choose the correct x-intercept and y-intercept of the equation x + 2y = 4.

x-intercept: (0, 2), y-intercept: (4, 0)

x-intercept: (2, 0), y-intercept: (4, 0)

x-intercept: (0, 4), y-intercept: (2, 0)

x-intercept: (4, 0), y-intercept: (0, 2)

Answer 1

x intercept is where y=0 and y intercept is where x=0

Answer 2

first rewrite equation in terms of y and x on opposites sides. y=(4-x)/2

Answer 3

now plug in x= 0 and you get y intercept. plug in 0 for y and solve and get x intercept
