The equation is $\"\"$ .

\

First find the y-intercept.

\

The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.

$\"\"$ (Additive identity proeprty: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply each side by negative one)

\

$\"\"$ (Product of two same signs is positive)

\

$\"\"$ (Product of two different signs is negative)

\

The y-intercept is $\"\"$ . $\"\"$

\

Next find the x-intercept.

\

The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.
