Think about it....   the y-axis intercept occurs at the y-axis...this is where x = 0   put in x = 0

NOTE 'x-intercept' is a shorthand method of saying 'x-axis intercept'

 

6(0) + 2y = 18      y = 9   = y-axis intercept

 

the x-axis intercept occurs when y = 0

 

6x + 2(0) = 18        x = 3   = x - axis intercept
