y-intercept =4

x-intercept =-1

Explanation:

y=4x+4

For finding y-intercept , put x = 0.

y=4(0)+4

y=4

For finding x-intercept , put y = 0.

0=4x+4

-4=4x

-1=x

-1" and "4

Explanation:

"to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses"
"the x and y axes"

• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"

• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"
