for the circle (x-2)^2+(y+3)^2=9 find the x and y intercepts.
i need step by step
---------------------------
x-intercept = ?
Let y = 0 and solve for "x":
(x-2)^2 + 3^2 = 9
(x-2)^2 = 0
x = 2 with multiplicity two.
That means the circle touches the x-axis at x=2,
but does not pass through it.
------------------
y-intercept = ?
Let x = 0 and solve for "y":
(-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 9
(y+3)^2 = 5
y+3 = +-sqrt(5)
y = -3+sqrt(5); y = 3-sqrt(5)
