What is a z-intercept?
A z-intercept is a point at which a line crosses the z-axis of a Cartesian grid.
How do you find the equation of a plane on a 3D graph if you have the X- Y- and Z-intercepts?
First, find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the three intercepts. Second, divide the LCM by the X-Intercept. Repeat for the Y- and Z-Intercepts. Third, take the three values, and put them together like this: (LCM/X-Intercept)x+(LCM/Y-Intercept)y+(LCM/Z-Intercept)z=LCM If it need it, you can simplify it. For example, if you have a plane with the intercepts (5, 0, 0), (0, 2, 0), and (0, 0, 3), the the LCM would be 30, so you would have: (30/5)x+(30/2)y+(30/3)z=30 6x+15y+10z=30
What is the x-intercept and the y-intercept of 4x-6y equals 12?

What is the slope and y-intercept and x-intercept of y equals -7?
Slope is zero y-intercept is -7 there is no x-intercept for this equation
What is the y- intercept and x- intercept for the equation -5x 2y20?
If you mean: -5x+2y = 20 then the x intercept is -4 and the y intercept is 10

What are the intercepts of 2x-3y-4z equals -24?
2x-3y-4z=-24 has 3 potential intercepts. The x, y and z interceps. To find the x intercept we set y=z=0 This gives 2x=-24 or x=-12 To find the z intercept we set x=y=0 This gives -4z=-24 or z=6 Lastly to find the y intercept, x=z=0 so -3y=-24 and y=8 The x intercept is (-12,0,0), the y intercept is (0,8,0) and the z intercept is (0,0,6)
What are the intercepts of -4x plus 6y-5z equals 60?
-4x + 6y - 5z = 60At the x-intercept, 'y' and 'z' are zero:-4x = 60 ===> x = -15At the y-intercept, 'x' and 'z' are zero:6y = 60 ===> y = 10At the z-intercept, 'x' and 'y' are zero:-5z = 60 ===> z = -12
What is the distance between x-intercept and the z-intercept in the equation2x plus 9y-3z equals 18?
2x + 9y - 3z = 18At the x-intercept, y' and 'z' are zero.2x = 18x = 9 . . . . . The intercept is (9, 0, 0)At the z-intercept, 'x' and 'y' are zero.-3z = 18z = -6 . . . . . The intercept is (0, 0, -6)The distance between the points is sqrt [ (9)2 + (0)2 + (-6)2 ] = sqrt(117) = 10.8167 (rounded)

What is the distance between the z-intercept from the x intercept in the equation ax plus by plus cz plus d equals 0?
ax + by + cz + d = 0At the z-intercept, 'x' and 'y' are both zero.cz + d = 0 --> z = -d/c --> The z-intercept is the point (0, 0, -d/c).At the x-intercept, 'y' and 'z' are zero.ax + d = 0 --> x = -d/a --> The x-intercept is the point (-d/a, 0, 0).The distance between the points (0, 0, -d/c) and (-d/a, 0, 0) issqrt[ (-d/a)2 + (-d/c)2 ] = sqrt (d2/a2 + d2/c2) = d sqrt(1/a2 + 1/c2)
What is the distance between z-intercept from x-intercept in the equation ax plus by plus cz equals d?
-- At the z-intercept, x=0, y=0, cz=d, so z=d/c.-- At the x-intercept, y=0, z=0, ax=d, so x=d/a.The distance between the two points is sqrt[ (d/c)2 + (d/a)2 ] or d sqrt[ (1/c)2 + (1/a)2 ].
What geometry word start with y?
