Question

the equation of a line is given below.
2x - y = 2
find the x - intercept and the y - intercept. then use them to graph the line.
x - intercept:
y - intercept:

Explanation:

Step1: Find x - intercept

Set \(y = 0\) in \(2x−y = 2\).
\[2x-0=2\Rightarrow 2x=2\Rightarrow x = 1\]

Step2: Find y - intercept

Set \(x = 0\) in \(2x−y = 2\).
\[2\times0 - y=2\Rightarrow -y=2\Rightarrow y=-2\]

Answer:

x - intercept: \(1\)
y - intercept: \(-2\)
