Name the -and -intercepts of the graph shown at the right.
Short Answer
The x-intercept of the given graph is 5 and the y-intercept is -2.
Step by step solution
– Definition of intercepts.
The intersection point of x-axis and the graph is known as x-intercept.
The intersection point of y-axis and the graph is known as y-intercept.
– Given information.
The given graph is:
– Intercepts of the given graph.
From the given graph it is clear that the graph intersects the x-axis at the point which is 5 units right from the origin. So, the x-intercept of the given graph is 5 because the graph crosses the x-axis at point .
The graph intersects the y-axis at the point which is 2 units down from the origin. The point lies on the negative y-axis. So, the y-intercept of the given graph is -2 because the graph crosses the y-axis at point .
Thus, the x-intercept of the given graph is 5 and the y-intercept is -2.
