Graphing Linear Equations with Intercepts

The video tutorial covers graphing linear equations using x and y-intercepts. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of x and y-intercepts, followed by step-by-step solutions to problems involving finding these intercepts for given equations. The tutorial includes detailed explanations and examples for each problem, helping students understand how to solve for intercepts and graph the resulting points. The video concludes with an assignment for further practice.
