Finding y intercept and x intercept is easy:

X intercept will be of the form (x,0) and y intercept will be of the form (0,y)

● If you put x=0 in the equation, you will get y-intercept.

● If you put y=0 in the equation, you will get x-intercept.
______________________________

Given equation: 2x - 4y = 10

◆ Put x = 0
2×0 - 4y = 10
=> -4y = 10
=> y = 10/(-4)
=> y = -5/2

Thus y intercept is (0, -5/2)

◆Put y = 0
2x - 4×0 = 10
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 10/2
=> x = 5

Thus the x intercept is (5,0)
