Finding the X and Y Intercept from an Equation and Graph

What is the y-intercept of this graph?

• (0,1)

• (0,-2)

• (0,0)

• (0,3)

The y-intercept can be found a graph by...

• Looking at where the line crosses the x-axis

• Looking at where the line crosses the y-axis

• Calculating "rise over run"

• Calculating "run over rise"

Graph the given equation on a GRAPH PAGE and check which answer choice matches. Make sure to use MENU, TRACE, GRAPH TRACE and match the x-intercept.

What is the x and y intercept for the following equation ?

4x - 10y = 20

*SHOW WORK*

• x - int = (4, 0)

  y-int = (0, -10)

• x-int = (5, 0)

  y-int = (0, 2)

• x - int = (5, 0)

  y int = (0, -2)

• x -int = (-4, 0)

  y -int = (0, -10)

What is the x and y intercept for the following equation ?

Remember equations are written as y=mx+b. Create the equation by finding the slope from rise/run and the y-intercept by looking at where it crosses the y-axis.

You can also create an equation by making a List & Spreadsheet, Data & Statistics, Menu 4, 6, 1.
