Answer:
The y-intercept and x-intercept of the line are 2 and -4 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation of line -x + 2y = 4
We have to find the y-intercept and x-intercept of the line.
Consider the given equation of line -x + 2y = 4
the y-intercept of line is the point where the line touches y axis and we know at y axis the coordinate of x is 0.
Thus, putting x = 0 in line equation , we get,
-(0) + 2y = 4
⇒ y =
⇒ y = 2
the x-intercept of line is the point where the line touches x axis and we know at x axis the coordinate of y is 0.
-x + 2(0) = 4
⇒ x = - 4
Thus, the y-intercept and x-intercept of the line are 2 and -4 respectively.
