Question

How do you find the x and y intercepts for `y=8x-3`?

Answer 1

`"x-intercept "=3/8," y-intercept "=-3`

Explanation:

`"to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses"`
`"the x and y axes"`

`• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"`

`• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"`

`x=0rArry=0-3=-3larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"`

`y=0rArr8x-3=0rArrx=3/8larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"`
