The simplest way to do this is to graph the equation and find the x- and y-intercepts by inspection.

As you can see from the graph, the x-intercept is (0, 0) and the y-intercept is (0, 0).
If you wanted to do it algebraically, then recall that the x-intercept occurs at y = 0, so substitute y = 0 into the given equation and solve for x.
-4x-2y = 0 Substitute y = 0.
-4x = 0 Divide both sides by -4.
x = 0
And similarly for the y-intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y.
