Identifying x and y-intercepts from a graph

Front

What is the x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the x-axis. At this point, the value of y is 0.

Front

What is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the y-axis. At this point, the value of x is 0.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the x-intercept if the x-intercept is -3?

Back

The ordered pair for the x-intercept is (-3, 0).

Front

What is the ordered pair for the y-intercept if the y-intercept is 3?

Back

The ordered pair for the y-intercept is (0, 3).

Front

What is the ordered pair for the y-intercept if the y-intercept is -2?

Back

The ordered pair for the y-intercept is (0, -2).

Front

How do you find the x-intercept from a graph?

Back

To find the x-intercept, look for the point where the graph touches or crosses the x-axis.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from a graph?

Back

To find the y-intercept, look for the point where the graph touches or crosses the y-axis.

Front

If a graph crosses the x-axis at -3, what is the x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is -3.

Front

If a graph crosses the y-axis at 3, what is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is 3.

Front

What does it mean if a graph has no x-intercept?

Back

If a graph has no x-intercept, it means the graph does not cross the x-axis.
