Graph an equation by finding the x and y intercepts x = 5y + 5

The video tutorial explains how to graph using X and Y intercepts. It covers the definition of intercepts, their significance, and the process of solving for them. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on setting up equations, substituting values, and graphing the resulting points. The teacher emphasizes the importance of correctly setting up problems and offers assistance for algebraic issues. The session concludes with encouragement to practice the learned concepts.

What is the X intercept of a graph?

• The point where the graph does not cross any axis

• The point where the graph crosses both axes

• The point where the graph crosses the X axis

• The point where the graph crosses the Y axis

How do you find the X intercept of an equation?

• Set X to zero and solve for Y

• Set Y to zero and solve for X

• Set X to one and solve for Y

• Set both X and Y to zero

What should you do after finding the intercepts of an equation?

• Use them to find the slope

• Ignore them

• Graph them as coordinate points

• Only write them down

In the example provided, what is the Y intercept of the equation?

• (0, -1)

• (5, 0)

• (-1, 0)

• (0, 5)

What is the first step in solving for the Y intercept in the example?

• Divide by five

• Multiply by zero

• Add five

• Subtract five
