#"y-intercept "=6," x-intercept "=-2#

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+6=6larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"#

#y=0rArr3x+6=0rArrx=-2larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"#
graph{(y-3x-6)((x-0)^2+(y-6)^2-0.04)((x+2)^2+(y-0)^2-0.04)=0 [-14.24, 14.24, -7.12, 7.12]}
