To solve for intercepts on a straight line graph put the equation in the form
y=mx+c where c is the y-intercept and you have the y intercept. Now to solve x-intercept set y=0
eg y=2x+5
0=2x+5
2x=-5
x=-2.5
For intercepts on other forms of graphs eg parabola
y-intercept= make x equal to 0 and solve
x-intercept= make y equal to 0 and solve

What is the xintercept for this linear equation 6x - y equals 9?
-3
What is the slope and yintercept of y plus 4x plus 3?
There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.
What is the xintercept of y2x 5?
As written this is not a graphable thing. I does not represent a graphable equation because there is no "=" sign. Whatever the equation might be, the x intercept is found by setting y=0, which leaves you with an equation for x, which is the intercept.
How do you find a linear equation using x and y coordinants?
The point-slope form of a line is y - y1 = m (x - x1)If the coordinates you are given are something like (3,5) and (9,10), find the slope "m" by taking the difference in y over the difference in x, so (10-5)/(9-3) = 5/6Next, just plug in the values for one of the pointsy - y1 = m (x - x1)y - 5 = (5/6) (x - 3)y - 5 = 5/6x - 5/2y = 5/6x + 5/2
How do you find the slope and y-intercept of an equation?
first of all, i dont see how slope and yintercept has anything to do with shopping. usually in an equation, y= mx+b, m stands for slope, and b is the y-intercept. x and y are just x and y. If the equation is mixed up, and is not in y=mx+b format, you need to solve to get y on one side, the slope, x, and whatever the presented constant is (which is the y-intercept) on the other side. hope this helps.

What is the xintercept for this linear equation 6x - y equals 9?
-3
What are used to locate and graph points in the Cartesian coordinate system?
Coordinants. If you're looking for an answer with 12 letters good luck..
What is the slope and yintercept of y plus 4x plus 3?
There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.
What is a slope used for?
It shows the relationship of y in terms of x. [y = (yIntercept) + ((slope)*(x))] [slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)]
What is the xintercept for 5x - 4y equals 18?
To find the x-intercept for 5x - 4y = 18, plug in a 0 for the y value and solve for x. 5x - 4(0) = 18 5x = 18 x = 18/5 or 3.6 The line will hit the x-axis at (3.6,0)
How do you write an equation of a line that passes through the xintercep and yintercept?
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
What are the slope and yintercept of line 5x 10y 15?
Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation
