First, what does "intercept" mean, when you're graphing straight lines?  If not sure, look it up in your textbook, or do an Internet search for "y-intercept."

Again, I'm looking to see what YOU are doing towards solving these problems.  Please share your work if you want feedback on it.   If you've gotten the right answer, there's no need to share your work unless you want to share it.  glad you got the right answer to your second problem.
