x-intercept: $(14, 0)$ $(14, 0)$
y-intercept: $(0, - 14)$ $(0, -14)$

Explanation:

x-intercept: $($ $($ x-value $, 0) \to$ $, 0) rarr$ Where the graph intersects the x-axis

y-intercept: $($ $($ y-value $, 0) \to$ $, 0) rarr$ Where the graph intersects the y-axis

Since the equation is in slope-intercept form ( $y = m x + b \to m$ $y=mx+b rarr m$ is the slope and $b$ $b$ is the y-intercept), the y-intercept is $(0, b)$ $(0, b)$

The y-intercept is $(0, - 14)$ $(0, -14)$ .

To find the x-intercept, plug in $0$ $0$ for $y$ $y$ and solve for $x$ $x$ :

$0 = x - 14$ $0=x-14$

$x = 14$ $x=14$

$(14, 0)$ $(14, 0)$
