I wanted to know how to figure out the x and y-intercept of an equation in standard form.

\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "To find the intercepts:
\n" ); document.write( "for the x intercept, set y = 0
\n" ); document.write( "4x + y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "4x = -4
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1
\n" ); document.write( "So the point is (-1,0)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "The y intercept is where x=0
\n" ); document.write( "4*0 + y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "So that point is (0,-4)\r
