Algebra.Com's Answer #773 by longjonsilver(2297)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! the y-intercept (where the line or curve crosses the y-axis) is where x=0, so: y=0 is the y-intercept, correct.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the x-intercept(s) (where the line or curve crosses the x-axis) is where y=0, so: \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x(x-6) = 0 \n" ); document.write( "so either x=0 or x-6=0\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therefore the curve crosses at 2 points, x=0 and x=6\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "jon. \n" ); document.write( " |
