Approximate Any Intercepts

Section 1.2
Question 66

Use a graphing utility to graph the equation. Use a standard setting. Approximate any intercepts.

66. y = 2 - | x |

How do I approximate any intercepts using a graph?

 

[MathLover1]

y = 2 - | x |

on the graph you see that intercepts are at x=-2 and x=2

Pretty easy. Thank you. Look for my new thread Challenging Questions in 10 minutes.
