The x-intercepts are where the graph crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercepts are where the graph crosses the y-axis.
algebraically,
an x-intercept is a point on the graph where y is zero, and
a y-intercept is a point on the graph where x is zero.
More specifically,
an x-intercept is a point in the equation where the y-value is zero, and
a y-intercept is a point in the equation where the x-value is zero.
