Answer: The x intercept is (-21/2,0) and the y intercept is (0,21)
Step-by-step explanation:
y- 7 = 2(x +7) The x intercept of a line is when y is equal to zero and the y-intercept is when x is equal to zero.
To solve for the x-intercept , put 0 in for y and solve for x.
0 - 7 = 2(x +7)
0- 7 = 2x + 14
-7 = 2x + 14
-14 -14
-21 = 2x
x = - 21/2
The x intercept is (-21/2,0)
Now solve for the y intercept.
y- 7 = 2(0+ 7)
y- 7 = 2(7)
y-7 = 14
+7 +7
y = 21
