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.
