Intercepts of $$$x^{2} - 4 y^{2} - 36 = 0$$$
Your Input
Find find the x- and y-intercepts of $$$x^{2} - 4 y^{2} - 36 = 0$$$.
Solution
To find the x-intercepts, substitute $$$y = 0$$$ into the equation and solve the resulting equation $$$x^{2} - 36 = 0$$$ for $$$x$$$ (use the equation solver).
To find the y-intercepts, substitute $$$x = 0$$$ into the equation and solve the resulting equation $$$- 4 y^{2} - 36 = 0$$$ for $$$y$$$ (use the equation solver).
Answer
x-intercepts: $$$\left(-6, 0\right)$$$, $$$\left(6, 0\right)$$$.
No y-intercepts.
