Find the x and y Intercepts f(x)=x/2+2

$f (x) = \frac{x}{2} + 2$

Step 1

Find the x-intercepts.

To find the x-intercept(s), substitute in $0$ for $y$ and solve for $x$ .

$0 = \frac{x}{2} + 2$

Solve the equation.

Rewrite the equation as $\frac{x}{2} + 2 = 0$ .

$\frac{x}{2} + 2 = 0$

Subtract $2$ from both sides of the equation.

$\frac{x}{2} = - 2$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $2$ .

$2 \frac{x}{2} = 2 \cdot - 2$

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$2 \frac{x}{2} = 2 \cdot - 2$

Rewrite the expression.

$x = 2 \cdot - 2$

Simplify the right side.

Multiply $2$ by $- 2$ .

$x = - 4$

x-intercept(s) in point form.

x-intercept(s): $(- 4, 0)$

Step 2

Find the y-intercepts.

To find the y-intercept(s), substitute in $0$ for $x$ and solve for $y$ .

$y = \frac{0}{2} + 2$

Solve the equation.

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{0}{2} + 2$

Simplify $\frac{0}{2} + 2$ .

Divide $0$ by $2$ .

$y = 0 + 2$

Add $0$ and $2$ .

$y = 2$

y-intercept(s) in point form.

y-intercept(s): $(0, 2)$

Step 3

List the intersections.

x-intercept(s): $(- 4, 0)$

y-intercept(s): $(0, 2)$
