To find the x-intercept, make y equal to zero, and solve for x. To find the y-intercept, make x equal to zero, and solve for y.
Explanation:y=4x−2
X-Intercept
0=4x−2
Add 2 to both sides of the equation.
2=4x
Divide both sides by 4.
2/4=x
Simplify.
1/2=x
Switch sides.
x=1/2
Y-Intercept
y=4(0)−2
y=−2
