x-int = 8
y-int = 2
Explanation:
An intercept is a point in the axis of interest at which the line passes through. Since the value of the other variable at the axis is 0, simply substitute 0 to the other variable to get the desired intercept
To get the x-intercept, substitute 0 to y,
Similarly, substitute 0 to x to get the y intercept
