Question

Find x- and y-intercepts. Write ordered pairs representing the points where the line crosses the axes.

y= 1/3 x− 2/3

Answer 1

y-intercept = (0,-2/3)

x-intercept = (2,0)

Explanation:

*X-intercept touches the x-axis & y-intercept touches the y-axis*

You can identify the y-intercept by looking at the equation.

The slope is 1/3x and the y-intercept is -2/3.

I'm not sure how to solve for the x-intercept, but you can make a graph with the y-intercept and the slope points. By doing this you should be able to find the x-intercept.

Hope this helped!!! :)

PS: Check out the Desmos Graphing Calculator

This website helps a lot with these types of problems. You can type the equation, and it will show you a graph. If you look at the graph, you'll be able to determine the slope, the x-intercept, and the y-intercept.
