The equation is .

First find the y-intercept.

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

                                    (Substitute x = 0 in original equation)

                                            (Multiply: )

                                              (Apply Additive identity property: a + 0 = a)

                            (Subtract from each side)

                                        (Apply Additive inverse property: )

                                              (Apply Additive identity property: a + 0 = a)

                                                  (Subtract: )

                                                   (Divide: )

The y-intercept is – 3.3, so the graph intersects the y-axis at (0, – 3.3).

Next find the x-intercept.

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

                                        (Substitute y = 0 in original equation)

                                              (Apply Additive identity property: a + 0 = a)

                                  (Add 3 to each side)

                                        (Apply Additive inverse property: )

                                              (Apply Additive identity property: a + 0 = a)

                                                  (Add: )

                                       (Multiply each side by 4)

                                                  (Cancel common terms)

                                                       (Multiply: )

                                                      (Divide: )

The x-intercept is 13.3, so the graph intersects the x-axis at ( 13.3, 0).

Graph Using Intercepts:
