Question

Use the graphing tool to determine the intercepts.

x-intercept =

y-intercept =

Answer 1

• x-intercept: 3
• y-intercept: -12

Explanation:

The x-intercept is the x-value where the graph crosses the x-axis. Here, that is at x=3.

Similarly, the y-intercept is the y-value where the graph crosses the y-axis. Here that appears to be at about y=-12.

Answer 2

x intercept is (3,0)

y intercept is (0,-12)

Explanation:

In the given graph , x axis is the horizontal line and y axis is the vertical line

x intercepts are the points where the graph crosses or touches x axis

From the given graph, the orange graph crosses x axis at x=3

x intercept is written as (x,0) . so x intercept is (3,0)

y intercepts are the points where the graph crosses or touches y axis

From the given graph, the orange graph crosses y axis at y=-12

y intercept is written as (0,y) . so y intercept is (0,-12)
