When they say "determine algebraically the coordinates of the intercepts with the axes," they are asking you to find the points where a graph intersects the x-axis and the y-axis. To do this algebraically, you would set either the x-coordinate or the y-coordinate to zero and solve for the other variable. The resulting point will be the intercept with the corresponding axis.

"Determine algebraically the coordinates of the intercepts with the axes" means finding the points where a given function crosses the x-axis and the y-axis, using algebraic methods.
The x-intercept(s) of a function are the points where the function's output (y-value) is zero. To find the x-intercepts, set y = 0 and solve for x.
The y-intercept(s) of a function are the points where the function's input (x-value) is zero. To find the y-intercepts, set x = 0 and solve for y.
