The intercepts are the points where the graph of a line intersect the axes. The

intercept is the point

where the line crosses the

axis, and the

intercept is the point

where the line crosses the

axis.

To find the

-coordinate of the

intercept, substitute 0 for

in the equation and solve for the value of

. This value is then the

in the

intercept point

. Then go back to the orginal equation and substitute 0 for

and solve for the resulting value of

to obtain the

-coordinate of the

-intercept.
