4x+2y=8-4x + 2y = 8

a) What is the x-intercept

{4x+2y=8y=0\begin{cases} -4x+2y=8\\ y=0 \end{cases} =>4x=8=>x=2=>xinterceptisA(2,0).=> -4x=8 =>x=-2\\=>x-intercept \, is \,A(-2,0).

b) What is the y-intercept

{4x+2y=8x=0\begin{cases} -4x+2y=8\\ x=0 \end{cases} =>2y=8=>y=4=>yinterceptisB(0,4).=>2y=8=>y=4=>\\y-intercept \, is \, B(0,4).

c) Is the origin on the right or left side of the line?



take a look at graph, origin is on the right side of the line.
