Question

4x-8y=24 find the x-intercept and y- intercept on the graph

Answer 1

The x intercept is the value of x when y=0
the y intercept is the value of y when x=0
when y=0: 4x-0=24 => x=4
when x=0: 0-8y=24 => y=-3
so the x intercept is 4, and the y intercept is -3

Answer 2

4x-8y=24
move variables to the right side and change its sign 
4x=24+8y
divide both sides by 4 
x=6+2y 


4x-8y=24
move variable to the right and change the sign 
-8y=24-4x
divide both sides by -8
y=-3+1/2x
