Question 966264: Find x and y intercepts
x+1/2y = 2
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20059) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

The y coordinate of the x-intercept is 0.
So to find the x-coordinate of the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y
and solve for x:

So the x-intercept is (2,0).
We plot the x-intercept:

----------------
The x coordinate of the y-intercept is 0.
So to find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept, substitute 0 for x
and solve for y:

Multiply both sides by 2:

So the y-intercept is (0,4).
We plot the y-intercept:

Now we get a ruler or straight edge and draw a line through them
