Question

Find the x - and y -intercepts of the graph of the linear equation -4x+8y=-16 .

The x -intercept is
.

The y -intercept is
.

Answer 1

x -intercept is 4

y -intercept is -2

Explanation:

SOLUTION:

(x -intercept)

-4x+8y= -16

-4x+8×0= -16

-4x+0= -16

-4x/-4 = -16/-4 (divide both sides by -4)

x=4

______________________

(y -intercept)

-4x+8y= -16

-4×0+8y= -16

0+8y= -16

8y/8 = -16/8 (divide both sides by 8)

y= -2
