State the x-intercept and the
y-intercept of the line.
The graph crosses the x-axis at
(–2, 0). The x-intercept is –2.
The graph crosses the y-axis at
(0, –2). The y-intercept is –2.
Answer: –2; –2
State the x-intercept and the
y-intercept of the line.
The graph does not cross the
x-axis. There is no x-intercept.
The graph crosses the y-axis
at (0, 2). The y-intercept is 2.

Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept for the
graph of
.
To find the x-intercept, let
.
Write the equation.
Replace y with 0.
Simplify.
The x-intercept is 4. So, the graph crosses the
x-axis at (4, 0).
To find the y-intercept, let
.
Write the equation.
Replace x with 0.
Simplify.
Divide each side by 2.
The y-intercept is 2. So, the graph crosses the y-axis
at (0, 2).
Answer: x-intercept, 4; y-intercept, 2
Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept for the graph of

Answer: x-intercept, 9; y-intercept, 3
Graph
using the x- and y-intercepts.
Step 1 Find the x-intercept.
Write the equation.
Replace y with 0.
Add 6 to each side.
Divide each side by 3.
The x-intercept is 2, so the graph passes through (2, 0).
Step 2 Find the y-intercept.
Write the equation.
Replace x with 0.
Simplify.
The y-intercept is –6, so the graph passes through (0, –6).
Step 3 Graph the points (2, 0) and (0, –6) and draw a line
through them.
Check Choose some other point on the line and determine
whether its ordered pair is a solution of

Home Repair Renata Jones has $300 for home repairs.
A plumber charges her $50 an hour. The equation
represents the amount of money left in
her budget after x number of plumbing hours.
Use the intercepts to graph the equation.
Step 1 Find the x-intercept.
Write the equation.
Replace y with 0.
Subtract 300 from each side.
Simplify.
Divide each side by –50.
The x-intercept is 6.
Step 2 Find the y-intercept.
Write the equation.
Replace x with 0.
Simplify.
The y-intercept is 300.
Step 3 Plot the points with coordinates (6, 0) and (0, 300).
Then draw a line through the points.
Answer:
(0, 300)
(6, 0)
Describe what the intercepts mean.
Answer: The y-intercept shows how much money
Renata has in her budget before any work is done.
The x-intercept means that she can afford only 6
hours of plumbing repair.

Shopping Suzanne has
$125 to spend on new
shoes. The shoe store is
having a sale in which
every pair of shoes is
priced at $25. The
equation
represents the amount of
money Suzanne has left
after purchasing x pairs of
shoes.
a. Use the intercepts to
graph the equation.
b. Describe what the intercepts mean.
Answer: The y-intercept shows how much money Suzanne
has before buying any shoes. The x-intercept means that
she can afford only 5 pairs of shoes.
