Question

Given the equation below, find the x and y−intercepts by completing the table.What is the problem with using these intercepts to graph the equation in #7?The ordered pair (x, y) you found in #7 is called the

Answer 1

$-4x+2y=0$

In order to find the x-intercept we need to make y=0

$-4x+2(0)=0$

Then we isolate the x

$-4x=0$$x=0$

x y Ordered Pair type of intercept

0 0 (0,0) x-intercept

Now for the y-intercept we need to make x=0

$-4(0)+2y=0$

we isolate the y

$2y=0$

$y=0$

0 0 (0,0) y-intercept

ANSWER

0 0 (0,0) x-intercept
