The x-intercepts of the graph of an equation are those x-values for which ___________.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The x-intercepts of the graph of an equation are those x-values for which y=0.

Step by step solution

01

Given information:

The given statement is

The x-intercepts of the graph of an equation are those x-values for which ___________.

02

Step 2:

Example:y=x+2

Consider the above example to understand about x-intercept and y-intercept:

Here, x-interceptis(-2,0).ie,In x-intercept, yvalueiszero(0),y=0.

Also,y-interceptis(0,2).ie,In y-intercept,x-valueiszero,x=0.
