Norah Shepard · Answer 1

The x intercept is the value of x when y=0

the y intercept is the value of y when x=0

when y=0: 4x-0=24 = > x=4

when x=0: 0-8y=24 = > y=-3

so the x intercept is 4, and the y intercept is - 3

Micah Horne · Answer 2

4x-8y=24

move variables to the right side and change its sign

4x=24+8y

divide both sides by 4

x=6+2y

4x-8y=24

move variable to the right and change the sign

-8y=24-4x

divide both sides by - 8

y=-3+1/2x
