Explanation
We must graph the line with the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+2y=-2, \\ 2y=-x-2, \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x-1. \end{gathered}[/tex]
Plotting this line, we get the following graph:
From the graph, we see that:
• the x-intercept is (-2, 0),
,
• the y-intercept is (0, -1).
Answer
• The x-intercept is ,(-2,0) ✓
,
• The y-intercept is not (0, -4) ,✖,, the correct y-intercept is ,(0, -1), ,✓,.
