Identifying x and y-intercepts from a graph

Front

What is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the y-axis. It is represented as (0, y).

Front

What is the x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the x-axis. It is represented as (x, 0).

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from a graph?

Back

To find the y-intercept, look for the point where the graph intersects the y-axis.

Front

How do you find the x-intercept from a graph?

Back

To find the x-intercept, look for the point where the graph intersects the x-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the y-intercept if it is 3?

Back

(0, 3)

Front

What is the ordered pair for the y-intercept if it is -2?

Back

(0, -2)

Front

What is the ordered pair for the x-intercept if it is 2?

Back

(2, 0)

Front

If a line crosses the y-axis at 3, what is the y-intercept?

Back

Front

What does the point (0, 3) represent on a graph?

Back

It represents the y-intercept of the graph.
