Question

find the x - intercept and the y - intercept of the line below. click on
one\ if applicable.
(a) x - intercept:
(b) y - intercept:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of x - intercept

The x - intercept is the point where the line crosses the x - axis (where \(y = 0\)). Looking at the graph, the line crosses the x - axis at \(x=-2\).

Step2: Recall the definition of y - intercept

The y - intercept is the point where the line crosses the y - axis (where \(x = 0\)). Looking at the graph, the line crosses the y - axis at \(y = 2\).

Answer:

(a) \(x\) - intercept: \(-2\)
(b) \(y\) - intercept: \(2\)
