Find the x and y Intercepts y=3/2x+2

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 2$

Find the x-intercepts.

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

$0 = \frac{3}{2} x + 2$

Solve the equation.

Rewrite the equation as $\frac{3}{2} x + 2 = 0$ .

$\frac{3}{2} x + 2 = 0$

Combine $\frac{3}{2}$ and $x$ .

$\frac{3 x}{2} + 2 = 0$

Subtract $2$ from both sides of the equation.

$\frac{3 x}{2} = - 2$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $\frac{2}{3}$ .

$\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3 x}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Simplify $\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3 x}{2}$ .

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3 x}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{1}{3} (3 x) = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Cancel the common factor of $3$ .

Factor $3$ out of $3 x$ .

$\frac{1}{3} (3 (x)) = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{1}{3} (3 x) = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Rewrite the expression.

$x = \frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify $\frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$ .

Multiply $\frac{2}{3} \cdot - 2$ .

Combine $\frac{2}{3}$ and $- 2$ .

$x = \frac{2 \cdot - 2}{3}$

Multiply $2$ by $- 2$ .

$x = \frac{- 4}{3}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$x = - \frac{4}{3}$

x-intercept(s) in point form.

x-intercept(s): $(- \frac{4}{3}, 0)$

Find the y-intercepts.

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

$y = \frac{3}{2} \cdot (0) + 2$

Solve the equation.

Multiply $\frac{3}{2}$ by $0$ .

$y = \frac{3}{2} \cdot 0 + 2$

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{3}{2} \cdot (0) + 2$

Simplify $\frac{3}{2} \cdot (0) + 2$ .

Multiply $\frac{3}{2}$ by $0$ .

$y = 0 + 2$

Add $0$ and $2$ .

$y = 2$

y-intercept(s) in point form.

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

List the intersections.

x-intercept(s): $(- \frac{4}{3}, 0)$

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