Question 167381: graph linear equation give the x and y intercepts
1)y+2=0

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph the linear equation, give the x and y intercepts.
y + 2 = 0
There are no x-intercepts.
The y-intercept is -2, which is located at the point (0,-2).
To solve this equation, subtract 2 from sides.
This will leave you with the linear equation y = -2.
This line is horizontal going through the point (0,-2).
Go to your graph paper and draw a horizontal line going through the point
(0,-2), which is parallel to the x-axis.
Understand?
