Question

Find the x and y Intercept of x + 2y = -14

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the y-intercep, we need to put 0 in for x

0 + 2y= -14

2y = -14

y = - 7

So, the y - intercept is located at ( 0, - 7)

Answer 2

Y-intercept: (0, -7)

X-intercept: (-14,0)

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept, we need to put 0 in for x

0 + 2y = -14

2y = -14

y = -7

So, the y-intercept is located at (0, -7)

To find the x-intercept, we need to put 0 in for y

x + 2(0) = -14

x = -14

So, the x-intercept is located at (-14,0)
