Finding the x and y intercepts and then graphing the equation using the intercepts

The video tutorial explains how to identify and graph linear equations by finding the X and Y intercepts. It begins with an introduction to linear equations, highlighting that variables are to the first power. The tutorial then details how to determine intercepts, emphasizing that the Y intercept occurs when X is zero and vice versa. The instructor demonstrates calculating the Y intercept by substituting zero for X and solving the equation. Similarly, the X intercept is found by setting Y to zero. Finally, the tutorial shows how to plot these points on a graph and draw the line, providing a clear method for graphing linear equations.

What does it mean when the X value is equal to 0 at the Y intercept?

How do you determine the coordinates of the intercepts from the equation?
