Question 309189: Show me how to find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of 8x-2y = -24

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Show me how to find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of 8x-2y = -24
.
For x-intercepts, set y=0 and solve for x:
8x-2(0) = -24
8x = -24
x = -24/8
x = -3
x-intercept is at (-3,0)
.
For y-intercepts, set x=0 and solve for y:
8(0)-2y = -24
-2y = -24
y = -24/(-2)
y = 12
y-intercept is at (0,12)
