The two graph interception points with axis are #(0,-4)# and #(16,0)#

Explanation:

All points in x axis are like #(x,0)#
All points in y axis are #(0,y)#. Thus
Putting this values in function definition formula, we obtain
#x=0# then #-4y=16#, #->y=-4# #->(0,-4)#
#y=0# then #x=16# #->(16,0)#

Representing those points in xy axis sistem and drawing a straigh line between them, we graph the function using intercepts
