SOLUTION: find the y intercept on a graph when y= 6x...doesnt this mean that you make x zero so y would equal 6times zero which is zero and therefore y would equal 0?if i graph it are both p

Question 986560: find the y intercept on a graph when y= 6x...doesnt this mean that you make x zero so y would equal 6times zero which is zero and therefore y would equal 0?if i graph it are both points zero Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Exactly. Any equation of the form (note the absence of a ) passes through the origin because whenever ,
You can also look at it this way. If you have , then the -coordinate of the -intercept is , hence the -intercept is the point . Now, if , what do you have?
