The intercepts are $(- 2, 0)$ $(-2,0)$ and $(0, 4)$ $(0,4)$

Explanation:

To find the x intercept put $y = 0$ $y=0$ and solve for x
To find the y intercept put $x = 0$ $x=0$ and solve for y

At $y = 0$ $y=0$ , $x = - 2$ $x=-2$
At $x = 0$ $x=0$ , $y = 4$ $y=4$

So the intercepts are $(- 2, 0)$ $(-2,0)$ and $(0, 4)$ $(0,4)$

The $x$ $x$ -intercept is $(- 2, 0)$ $(-2,0)$ and the $y$ $y$ -intercept is $(0, 4)$ $(0,4)$ .

Explanation:

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

So

$x$ $x$ -intercept $\Rightarrow 2 x - y = - 4$ $=> 2x -y =-4$

$\Rightarrow 2 x - 0 = - 4$ $=> 2x - 0 = -4$

$\Rightarrow x = - 2$ $=> x = -2$

and

$y$ $y$ -intercept: $\Rightarrow 2 x - y = - 4$ $=> 2x-y =-4$

$\Rightarrow 2 (0) - y = - 4$ $=> 2(0) - y = -4$

$\Rightarrow y = 4$ $=> y = 4$
