Because a line always goes past the y-intercept and x-intercept. It's not always both, it can sometimes just be the x-intercept or the y-intercept.
When a line intersects these points, for example if a line was to intersect the x-axis then y would be equal to 0, and the opposite for the y-axis. If a line was to intersect the y-axis x would be equal to 0.
Therefore by using that knowledge, and the equation of the line [ y=mx+c or y-y1=m(x-x1) ], we can find the equation of our line. Of course you would need the gradient of that line (the value "m").
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 2(y-8)
= 2y-16
b. 3(x-5)
= 3x-15
c.6(b-4)
= 6b-32
d.7(d-2)
= 7d-14
e.5(2-y)
= 10-5y
f.3(4-t)
= 12-3t
g.5(b-a)
=5b-5a
h.7(2-h)
= 14-7h
