Do you want to find the x and y intercepts?
x-intercept
To find the x-intercept, plug in and solve for x
Start with the given equation.
Plug in .
Multiply and 0 to get 0.
Simplify.
Divide both sides by to isolate .
Reduce.
So the x-intercept is )
.
------------------------------------------
y-intercept
To find the y-intercept, plug in and solve for y
Start with the given equation.
Plug in .
Multiply and 0 to get 0.
Simplify.
Divide both sides by to isolate .
Reduce.
So the y-intercept is )
.
Notice that if we graph the equation (you have to solve for y first), we can see that the graph has the x-intercept and the y-intercept
