 X- intercept
and Y-intercept
 intercepts
Points at which the graph crosses the axes
 X-intercepts
point at which the graph crosses the x-axis

ordered pair:
(x,0)
where a is x real number
and the x-intercept
 X-intercepts
to determine the x-intercept, we set y equal to
zero and solve for x
Example: solve for the x-intercept: y = 3x + 6
y = 3x + 6
0 = 3x + 6
− 3x = 6
-3 -3
x = -2
ordered pair: (-2,0)
 X-intercepts
Example: solve for the x-intercept: y = 3x + 6

y = 3x + 6
0 = 3x + 6 ordered pair:
− 3x = 6 (-2,0)
-3 -3
x = -2
 Y-intercepts
point at which the graph crosses the y-axis

ordered pair:
(0,y)
where a is y real number
and the y-intercept
 y-intercepts
to determine the y-intercept, we set x equal to
zero and solve for y

Example: solve for the y-intercept: y = 3x + 6

y = 3x + 6
y = 3(0) + 6
y=6
ordered pair: (0,6)
 y-intercepts
Example: solve for the y-intercept: y = 3x + 6

y = 3x + 6 ordered pair:
y = 3(0) + 6 (0,6)
y=6
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=2x-2
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=2x-2
X-INTERCEPT Y-INTERCEPT
Let y be 0 Let x be 0
y = 2x - 2 y = 2x - 2
0 = 2x - 2 y = 2(0) - 2
− 2x = -2 y=0-2
-2 -2 y = -2
x=1 ordered pair: (0,-2)
ordered pair: (1,0)
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=2x-2

Y-INTERCEPT X-INTERCEPT
ordered pair: (0,-2) ordered pair: (1,0)
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=3x-1
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=3x-1
X-INTERCEPT Y-INTERCEPT
Let y be 0 Let x be 0
y = 3x - 1 y = 3x - 1
0 = 3x - 1 y = 3(0) - 1
− 3x = -1 y=0-1
-3 -3 y = -1
x = 1/3 ordered pair: (0,-1)
ordered pair: (1/3,0)
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=3x-1

Y-INTERCEPT X-INTERCEPT
ordered pair: ordered pair:
(0,-1) (1/3,0)
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=6x+42
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=6x+42
X-INTERCEPT Y-INTERCEPT
Let y be 0 Let x be 0
y = 6x - 42 y = 6x - 42
0 = 6x - 42 y = 6(0) - 42
− 6x = -42 y = 0 - 42
-6 -6 y = -42
x=7 ordered pair: (0,-42)
ordered pair: (7,0)
 example
find the x-intercept and y-intercept of y=30x+5
