Solution Steps

To find the x-intercept and y-intercept of the line given by the equation \( y = 4x + 58 \):

  1. X-intercept: Set \( y = 0 \) and solve for \( x \).
  2. Y-intercept: Set \( x = 0 \) and solve for \( y \).
Step 1: Finding the X-Intercept

To find the x-intercept, we set \( y = 0 \) in the equation \( y = 4x + 58 \):

\[ 0 = 4x + 58 \]

Solving for \( x \):

\[ 4x = -58 \implies x = -\frac{58}{4} = -14.5 \]

Thus, the x-intercept is \( (-14.5, 0) \).

Step 2: Finding the Y-Intercept

To find the y-intercept, we set \( x = 0 \) in the equation \( y = 4x + 58 \):

\[ y = 4(0) + 58 = 58 \]

Thus, the y-intercept is \( (0, 58) \).

Final Answer

The x-intercept is \( (-14.5, 0) \) and the y-intercept is \( (0, 58) \).

\[ \boxed{\text{x-intercept: } (-14.5, 0), \text{ y-intercept: } (0, 58)} \]
