Finding x- and y- intercept

Front

What is the definition of an x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the x-axis, meaning the value of y is zero at that point.

What is the definition of a y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the y-axis, meaning the value of x is zero at that point.
