Questions and Answers

What is the x-intercept of a line?

  • The place where the line crosses the y-axis
  • The place where the line crosses the x-axis
  • The place where x = 1
  • The place where y = 0 (correct)

How can you find the y-intercept of a line?

  • By setting x = 0 in the equation and solving for y (correct)
  • By finding where the line crosses the x-axis
  • By locating where y = 1
  • By setting y = 0 in the equation and solving for x

What does the x-intercept represent geometrically on a graph?

  • The point where x = 0 (correct)
  • The point where y = -1
  • The intersection with the y-axis
