Answer:

(9, 0)

(0, 11200)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x - intercept is the value of x when y = 0 ; similarly, the y - intercept is the value of y, when x = 0

From the given relation :

y = price, x = number of years

Price after 9 years of usage, the price of car is depreciated to 0

Hence,

x = 9, y = 0

(9, 0)

At purchase, the value of car is 11,200 ;

At this price, the number of years of usage of car is 0

Hence ;

x = 0 ; y = 11200

(0, 11200)
