Find the X intercept and the y intercept without graphing
4y=2x-1
-------------
At the x-intercept, y = 0.
At the y-intercept, x = 0.

1) 4y = 2x -1
:
divide both sides of = by 4
:
2) y = x/2 -1/4
:
if x = 0, then y = -1/4, this is our y intercept
:
solve equation 1) for x
:
2x = 4y +1
:
x = y/2 +1/2
:
if y = 0, then x = 1/2, this is our x intercept
:
***********************************************
x intercept is 1/2 and point is (1/2, 0)
y intercept is -1/4 and point is (0, -1/4)
