SOLUTION: i need some help with y and x intercepts

Question 810232: i need some help with y and x intercepts
Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'll pick an equation to demonstrate

Here's the plot:

You can see the intercepts
(1) x-intercept is at ( 3,0 )
(2) y-intercept is at ( 0,6 )
-----------------------
This is normally shortened a little by just saying:
(1) x-intercept is at 3
(2) y-intercept is at 6
-------------------
Where the line intercepts the x-axis,
Where the line intercepts the y-axis,
This is the key to finding the intercepts
--------------------
x-intercept:

so, the x-intercept is 3
--------------------
y-intercept:

so, the y-intercept is 6
Hope this helps
