Find the intercepts forx-y=-3

Short Answer

Expert verified

The x-intercept is-3,0.

The y-intercept is0,3.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Definition

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis.

02

Step 2. Calculating x-intercept

To find x-intercept, let y=0

⇒x-0=-3

⇒x=-3

So, the x-intercept is-3,0.

03

Step 3. Calculating y-intercept

To find y-intercept, let x=0

⇒0-y=-3

⇒y=3

So, the y-intercept is 0,3
