What are the x and y intercepts of a linear equation

The video tutorial explains the concept of X and Y intercepts in linear graphs. It begins by introducing the axes and the origin, then describes how intercepts are points where a graph crosses the axes. The tutorial highlights that a linear graph can have either or both intercepts, and provides examples of graphs with different intercepts. It also explains that a graph can have only one intercept, such as a horizontal or vertical line, and emphasizes the importance of identifying these points.

What is the origin point on a graph?

• (1,0)

• (0,1)

• (1,1)

• (0,0)

Where does a line cross the X-axis?

• At the Y intercept

• At any random point

• At the X intercept

• At the origin

Can a linear graph have only one intercept?

• Yes, it can have only a Y intercept

• Yes, it can have only an X intercept

• Yes, it can have either an X or Y intercept

• No, it must have both intercepts

What happens when a graph is a horizontal line?

• It has no intercepts

• It has both X and Y intercepts

• It has only a Y intercept

• It has only an X intercept

What is true about a vertical line on a graph?

• It has only a Y intercept

• It has only an X intercept

• It has no intercepts

• It has both X and Y intercepts
