Standard Form/Intercepts

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A and B are not both zero.

To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 in the equation and solve for x.

To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

Intercepts are points where a line crosses the x-axis (x-intercept) and y-axis (y-intercept).

The x-intercept is 10.

The y-intercept is -8.

The x-intercept is (8, 0).

The y-intercept can be found by setting x = 0, which gives y = 3.

An ordered pair representing a y-intercept has the form (0, y), where y is any real number.

The y-intercept indicates the point where the line crosses the y-axis, showing the value of y when x is zero.
