    When y = 0, x will equal the x-intercept. So, plug in 0 for the y-value to find the x-intercept.

    -4x + 2y = 24 Plug in 0 for y

    -4x + 2 (0) = 24 Multiply

    -4x = 24 Divide both sides by - 4

    x = - 6

    The x-intercept is (-6, 0).

    When x = 0, y will be the y-intercept. So, plug in 0 for x and solve for y.

    -4x + 2y = 24 Plug in 0 for x

    -4 (0) + 2y = 24 Multiply

    2y = 24 Divide both sides by 2

    y = 12

    The y-intercept is (0, 12).
