consider the line shown in the graph.
match the x- and y-intercepts with the correct coordinate pairs. some coordinate pairs will not be used.
x-intercept
y-intercept

(-5,0) # (3,0) # (0,3) # (0,-3)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify x-intercept

The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x - axis (y = 0). From the graph, the line crosses the x - axis at (-5, 0) because when y = 0, x=-5.

Step2: Identify y-intercept

The y - intercept is where the line crosses the y - axis (x = 0). From the graph, the line crosses the y - axis at (0, - 3) because when x = 0, y=-3.

Answer:

x - intercept: (-5, 0)
y - intercept: (0, - 3)
