Question

1. Find the x- and y-intercept of the line. (1 point)
x - y = 12

Answer 1

The x-intercept is when the value of the y-coordinate is 0.

`x - 0 = 12\\ x = 12`

Thus the x-intercept is at (12,0).

The y-intercept is when the value of the x-coordinate is 0

`0-y=12\\y = -12`

Thus the y-intercept is at (0,-12)
