QuestionFind the intercepts of the line y=4x+4y=-4x+4. Provide answers as points (x,y)(x, y) for both intercepts.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation of the line is y=4x+4y=-4x+4 . We are looking for the xx-intercept and the yy-intercept3. The xx-intercept is the point where the line crosses the xx-axis (i.e., y=0y=0)
4. The yy-intercept is the point where the line crosses the yy-axis (i.e., x=0x=0)

STEP 2

First, let's find the xx-intercept by setting y=0y=0 in the equation of the line.
0=4x+40=-4x+4

STEP 3

Now, solve the equation for xx.
x+=0-x+=0

STEP 4

Rearrange the equation to isolate xx.
4x=4-4x=4

STEP 5

Divide both sides by 4-4 to solve for xx.
x=44x=\frac{4}{-4}

STEP 6

Calculate the value of xx.
x=44=1x=\frac{4}{-4}=-1So, the xx-intercept is (1,0)(-1,0).

STEP 7

Now, let's find the yy-intercept by setting x=0x=0 in the equation of the line.
y=4(0)+4y=-4(0)+4

STEP 8

implify the equation to find the value of yy.
y=4y=4So, the yy-intercept is (0,4)(0,4).
The intercepts of the line y=4x+4y=-4x+4 are (1,0)(-1,0) and (0,4)(0,4).
