Answer: Choice C
x intercept is (4,0)
y intercept is (0,2)
=======================================================
Work Shown:
To find the x intercept, we plug in y = 0 and solve for x
2x+4y = 8
2x+4(0) = 8
2x+0 = 8
2x = 8
x = 8/2
x = 4
We have x = 4 pair up with y = 0. So we have (x,y) = (4,0) as the x intercept.
This is the location where the graph crosses the x axis.
--------------
The y intercept is a similar story, but we use x = 0 to find y.
2x+4y = 8
2(0)+4y = 8
0+4y = 8
4y = 8
y = 8/4
y = 2
The value x = 0 leads to y = 2. This gets us (x,y) = (0,2) as the y intercept.
This is the location where the graph crosses the y axis.
