Question

What are the intercepts of the line `y= -4x+2`?

Answer 1

`"x-intercept "=1/2," y-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+2=2larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"`

`y=0rArr-4x+2=0rArrx=1/2larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"`
graph{(y+4x-2)((x-1/2)^2+(y-0)^2-0.04)((x-0)^2+(y-2)^2-0.04)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
