Mr. Win explains how to find x and y-intercepts of linear functions using graphs, tables, and equations. He provides definitions and examples, including a real-world scenario involving a paper airplane. The video covers identifying intercepts on graphs, using tables to find intercepts, and solving equations in standard form to determine intercepts. The lesson concludes with a practical application of these concepts.

What is the x-intercept of a graph?

• The point where the line intersects the origin

• The y-coordinate where the line intersects the y-axis

• The x-coordinate where the line intersects the x-axis

• The slope of the line

When finding the y-intercept, what is the value of x?

• 0

• It varies

• 1

• It depends on the equation

In a table, how do you identify the x-intercept?

• When both x and y are 0

• When x is 0

• When x is positive

• When y is 0

What is the y-intercept of the equation 2x + 5y = 10?

• 5

• 0

• 2

• 10
