Graph the linear equation in two variables, using the two different range settings given. Determine which setting shows
all intercepts of the line.
-$$y = - x - 23$$
A) Setting A: $[ - 30,10 ]$ by $[ - 30,5 ]$
B) Setting B: $[ - 10,10 ]$ by $[ - 30,15 ]$

Setting A covers both the x-intercept and y-intercept of the line. The x-intercept is found by setting $y = 0$, which gives $x = -23$, and the y-intercept is found by setting $x = 0$, which gives $y = -23$. Both intercepts are within the range of Setting A.
