What are the intercepts of -4y-2x=8? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Intercepts and the Cover-Up Method 1 Answer sankarankalyanam Apr 14, 2018 color(maroon)("x-intercept " = -2, " y-intercept " = -4 Explanation: -4x - 2y = 8, " To find x & y intercepts" "When x = 0, " -2y = 8 " or " y = -4 Hence "y-intercept " = -4 Similarly, "When y = 0, " -4x = 8 " or " x = -2 Hence "x-intercept " = -2 Answer link Related questions How do you use the cover-up method to solve for the x and y intercept?
