Question

How do you find the x and y intercepts for #y = -2x + 4?

Answer 1

I found:
y-intercept: `(0,4)`
x-intercept: `(2,0)`

Explanation:

For the `x` intercept set `y=0` so you get:
`0=-2x+4`
`x=4/2=2`
For the `y` intercept set `x=0` so you get:
`y=(-2*0)+4=4`

Graphically:
graph{-2x+4 [-12.66, 12.66, -6.33, 6.33]}
