Where does the line with the equation y + 8x = 4 intercept with the co-ordinate axis? It intercepts the x-axis at ( ? , 0 )

It intercepts the y-axis at ( 0, ? )

It intercepts the x-axis at ( 1/2 , 0 )

It intercepts the y-axis at ( 0, 4 )

Explanation:

Given  the equation of the line as y + 8x = 4

To get the intercept on the x - axis, we  would substitute y as 0. This is because the value of y at the point of the x - axis is 0.

Hence the given line equation becomes

0 + 8x = 4

8x = 4

Divide both sides by 8

x = 4/8 = 1/2

To get the y-axis intercept, substitute x = 0, then the equation becomes

y + 8(0) = 4

y = 4
