Find the x and y Intercepts x-y=4

Problem

x−y=4

Solution

1. Find the x-intercept by setting y=0 in the equation.

x−0=4

2. Solve for x to determine the point where the line crosses the x-axis.

x=4

3. Find the y-intercept by setting x=0 in the equation.

0−y=4

4. Solve for y by multiplying both sides by −1

−y=4

y=−4

Final Answer

x-intercept: *(4,0), y-intercept: *(0,−4)
