What does the term 'intercept' refer to in a graph?

Back

An intercept is a point where a line crosses an axis. The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis (y=0), and the y-intercept is where it crosses the y-axis (x=0).

How do you find the x-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

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

What does the term 'slope' refer to in a linear equation?

Back

The slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise/run).
