What is the definition of y-intercept?
The place on a graph were a line crosses the y axis
What is the definition of graph intercept?
The intercept of a graph is the point where is crosses one of the coordinate axes. The x intercept is where it crosses the x axis, the y intercept where it crosses the y axis. If the graph is given as y equals a function of x, it is usually easier to find the y intercept, because that is where x is 0. You just plug in 0 for x and evaluate. To find the x intercept, you plug in 0 for y and then you have to solve an equation for x. This is fairly easy if it is a linear equation (the graph is a straight line), somewhat harder for a quadratic (a parabola). But anyway you only asked for a definition, and I have given it.
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
How do you find the y-intercept and x-intercept of y equals -1?
The function y = -1 has no x-intercept; its graph is a horizontal line with a y-intercept of -1.
What is the slope and y-intercept of y equals 2.5x?
