When determining an X intercept, you need to subsitute the Y variable for a 0. Same goes for the Y intercept, except the X variable should be subsituted for a 0. You can use BFSD (best friends share deserts) to simplify these equations. B stands for brackets, which didn’t occur in this situation. F stands for fractions, which can be simplified by multiplying each side be the denominator. S stands for sort, which occurs when isolating the variable (subtracting or adding a misplaced number). D stands for divide, which is the final step to isolating the variable.
