How to find the x and y intercept on an linear equation

The video tutorial explains how to find X and Y intercepts on a graph. It begins with a basic introduction to intercepts and number lines, then moves on to a detailed explanation of how to identify X and Y intercepts. The tutorial includes an example problem to illustrate the process of finding intercepts, emphasizing that at the X intercept, Y is zero, and at the Y intercept, X is zero.

What is the value of Y when X equals 2 on the X-axis?

• Y = 0

• Y = 2

• Y = -2

• Y = 1

At the X-intercept, what is the value of Y?

• Y = 0

• Y = X

• Y = 1

• Y = -1

If a point is on the Y-axis, what is the value of X?

• X = -1

• X = Y

• X = 1

• X = 0

What is the X-intercept of a line if it crosses the X-axis at -6?

• (0, 6)

• (0, -6)

• (6, 0)

• (-6, 0)

How would you write the Y-intercept of a line that crosses the Y-axis at 5?

• (5, 0)

• (5, 5)

• (0, 5)

• (0, -5)
