Determine the X - and Y - intercepts for the graph defined by the given equation. Y = - 8

A. X-intercept is (0,-8)

No y-intercept

B. No X intercept

Y-intercept is (0,-8)

C. X-intercept is (-8,0)

No y-intercept

D. No x-intercept

Y-intercept is (-8,0)

Y = - 8 simply means for every x coordinate the y coordinate is - 8, therefore it creates a horizontal line at y = - 8.

X intercepts are when y = 0. Y intercepts are when x = 0.

In this case of the line, y = - 8 there is no x intercept because y doesn't equal 0.

However there is a y intercept at (0,-8) because y is - 8 for every input including 0.
