Hi
x − 8y = 16
x-intercept (x, y)  |Set y = 0  Pt(16,0)
y-intercept (x, y)  |Set x = 0  Pt(0,-2)
Graphing Line:  y = x/8 -2


Wish You the Best in your Studies.

Find the x- and y-intercepts
x+-8y+=+16

x-intercept is at (x,+0)
so, set y=0
x+-8%2A0+=+16
x++=+16
x-intercept is at (16,+0)

y-intercept is at (0, y)
so, set x=0
0+-8y+=+16
-8y+=+16
y+=+16%2F-8
y+=+-2
y-intercept is at (0, -2)
