Determine the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y=−12x−4 . then plot the intercepts to graph the equation.

X-Intercept:

Y-Intercept: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

The X and Y intercepts show at what points the function values cross the X and Y axis. We can solve for the X-intercept by substituting the value of y for 0 and then solving for x. Like so...

.... add 4 on both sides

... divide both sides by -12

= -x

Now we can see that the X-Intercept is . Now we substitute 0 for x and solve for the Y-intercept.

Finally we can see that the Y-intercept is -4

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at .

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.
