Definitions: X-Intercept The x-intercept is a point on any

graph where the graph touches the x-axis.

The y-coordinate of the x-intercept is always zero.

The x-intercept is denoted by the point (x ,0), where x is any real number.

The x-intercept is also known as the zero or root of an equation.

Page 14: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

Definitions: Y-Intercept The y-intercept is a point on

any graph where the graph touches the y-axis.

The x-coordinate of the y-intercept is always zero.

The y-intercept is denoted by the point (0, y), where y is any real number.

Page 15: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

Procedure for Finding Intercepts

1. To find the x-intercept(s), if any, of the graph of an equation, let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x.

2. To find the y-intercept(s), if any, of the graph of an equation, let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

Page 16: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

Example: Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y = x2 + 4x – 5.

To find the x-intercepts, let y = 0 and solve for x.0 = x2 + 4x – 5 Substitute 0 for y.

0 = (x – 1)(x + 5) Factor.

x – 1 = 0 x + 5 = 0

x = 1 x = –5 Solve for x.

So, the x-intercepts are (1, 0) and (–5, 0).

Page 17: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

Example: Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y = x2 + 4x – 5.

To find the y-intercept, let x=0 and solve for y.

y = 02 + 4(0) – 5 = –5

So, the y-intercept is (0, –5).

Graph of the Functions

Page 19: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

The graph of an equation in two variables x and y consists of the set of points in the xy-plane whose coordinates (x,y) satisfy the equation.

Page 20: P.2 coordinates, lines and increment. Rectangular Coordinate System The horizontal line is called the x-axis. The vertical line is called the y-axis

Graphing The graph of an equation is found

by plotting points that are solutions of the equation.

The intercepts of the graph are good points to find first.

x-intercept is an x-value where the graph intersects the x-axis. y = 0

y-intercept is a y-value where the graph intersects the y-axis. x = 0

Graphing an Equation by Point Plotting Step 1 Find the intercepts. Step 2 Find as many additional

ordered pairs as needed. Step 3 Plot the ordered pairs
