Given:
The equation is
[tex]-x+y=8[/tex]
To find:
The x- and y-intercepts.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]-x+y=8[/tex]
Put x=0 in the given equation to find the y-intercept.
[tex]-(0)+y=8[/tex]
[tex]y=8[/tex]
Put y=0 in the given equation to find the x-intercept.
[tex]-x+(0)=8[/tex]
[tex]-x=8[/tex]
[tex]x=-8[/tex]
Therefore, the x-intercept is -8 and the y-intercept is 8.
