Explaining Intercept Calculations for Budget Constraints

You are preparing a reference guide for new inventory clerks on how to determine boundary constraints using the linear budget model x+4y=8x + 4y = 8. Recalling the standard algebraic procedure for finding intercepts, describe the step-by-step process used to calculate both the x-intercept and the y-intercept for this specific equation. Be sure to include the substitution steps and state the final coordinate points for both intercepts in your explanation.
