Introduction to Intercepts

Multiple Choice

Will we learn what to do if an equation only has one intercept?

• Yes

• No

Multiple Choice

The coordinate (0, 3) is a ____________.

• y - intercept

• x - intercept

• not an intercept.

• at the origin.

Multiple Choice

In which quadrant is the point (3, -3)?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

​How to graph by finding the intercepts.

Write the question, draw the graph...be ready, bruh!​

Multiple Choice

What is the x - intercept of 2x - 3y = 12

• 6

• (0, 6)

• (-4, 0)

• (6, 0)

Multiple Choice

Is (3, 2) a solution to 2x - 3y = 12?

• Yes

• No

Multiple Choice

Through which quadrant does this graph NOT cross?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Multiple Select

Which point would be best used to check if the graph was correct?

• (1, -1.8)

• (-3, -3)

• (3, -1)

• (6, 0)

Multiple Choice

Select the graph that matches 4x - 2y = 8

• A

• B

• C

• D

​What if the x and y intercepts are the origin?

If the graph passes through the origin you need to find another point by using a t-chart or substitution.

​

Just pick a number for x, plug it in, solve for y.​

That's it, bruh.​

Multiple Choice

Does the equation 2x + y = 0 pass through the origin?

• Yes

• No

Multiple Choice

For the equation 2x + y = 0, what is y if x is 3?

• 3

• -3

• 6

• -6

• Answer not shown.

Multiple Choice

How many points do you need in order to draw a line?

• None

• One

• Two

• Three or more

​-Abraham Lincoln

​You need three or more points when graphing a linear equation.

​

Two points form a random line, but only three or more will line up to help you know you're correct.​
