Question

How do you find the x and y intercepts for `y=4x+4`?

Answer 1

The `x`-intercept is at `(-1, 0)` and the `y`-intercept is at `(0, 4)`.

Explanation:

To find the `x`-intercept, set `y=0` and solve for `x`.

`0=4x+4`

`4x=-4`

`x=-1`

To find the `y`-intercept, set `x=0` and solve for `y`.

`y=4(0)+4=4`
