Does every line has a y-intercept?
No because a line can be a vertical line so say you have the equation x=5. Then a vertical line would pass through the x intercept 5 and be vertical thus not having a y intercept. All horizontal lines have a y intercept
What is the slope of a line that has a y-intercept but no x-intercept?
A line with a y-intercept but no x-intercept will be a straight line parallel to the x axis. It will have a slope of zero.
What is the definition of the x intercept?
The x-intercept of a line is the point at which the line crosses the x-axis.
Is it possible for a line to not have a x-intercept?
Yes, a zero slope line has no x-intercept.
How do you find the x-intercept of y equals 2x?
At the x-intercept, y=0.2x = 0x = 0The line goes through the origin, where 'x' and 'y' are both zero.
