Answer

$(0,-4),(0,4),(-2,0),(2,0)$

Work Step by Step

We are given the equation: $y^2=16-4x^2$ Determine the intercepts: $y=0\Rightarrow 16-4x^2=0\Rightarrow x^2=4\Rightarrow x=\pm 2$ $x=0\Rightarrow y^2=16-4(0^2)\Rightarrow y^2=16\Rightarrow y=\pm 4$ The intercepts are: $(0,-4),(0,4),(-2,0),(2,0)$
