To find the intercepts of the equation (y = x^4 - 2x^2 - 8), we need to determine where the graph intersects the x-axis and y-axis. For the y-intercept, set (x = 0), yielding (y = -8), so the y-intercept is (0, -8). To find the x-intercepts, set (y = 0) and solve the equation (x^4 - 2x^2 - 8 = 0); this can be factored or solved using substitution methods, leading to the x-intercepts at approximately (x \approx 2.414) and (x \approx -2.414).

What are the intercepts of 2x-3y-4z-24?
The question does not contain an equation but an expression. An equation can have intercepts, an expression cannot.
How do you solve a quadratic equation graphically?
The roots of the quadratic equation are the x-intercepts of the curve.
A linear equation cannot always be graphed by using intercepts alone?
Yes it can. A linear equation in the form of y=mx+b can always be graphed used the x and y intercepts.

Does graph the equation mean plot the x and y intercepts?
No; it means draw the curve.
