Question 423004: Find the x- and y-intercepts for the equation. Please show all of your work. Then graph the equation
y = -2x – 6 Answer by Gogonati(855) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To find the y-intercept we make x = 0, we have: , y=-6 is the y-intercept.
To find the x-intercept we make y = 0, we have: , 2x=-6, x=-3 is the x-intercept.
Since our equation is a linear equation its graph is a straight line that pases on the intercept points (0,-6) and (-3,0)
.
