To find the y intercept of the line y=2x+10, we must substitute x=0 into the equation.
therefore: y=2(o)+10=10. Therefore the y-intercept is 10.
Shortcut: the y intercept of any line in the form y=mx+b is simply 'b'.
To find the x-intercept, we substitute y=0 into the equation.
Therefore 0=2x+10
-10=2x
-5=x
Therefore, the x-intercept is -5.
Shortcut: the x intercept of any line in the form y=mx+b is simply -b/m.

How do you find the x and y intercepts of an equation?
Substitute zero for x to find the y-intercept, and substitute zero for y to find the x-intercept.
What is the x and y intercept of x plus 2y equals 10?
x + 2y = 10At the x-intercept, y=0:x = 10At the y-intercept, x=0 ==> 2y = 10y = 5
How do you find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of a graph?
X axis is across and Y axis is down
How do you find the equation of a line with the x and y intercept?
If the x intercept is a and the y intercept is b, then the equation of the line is bx + ay = ab
How do you find X and Y intercepts of -4X plus 3Y equals 10?
Put 0 in for x and solve for y to find the y intercept. Put 0 in for y and solve for x to find the x intercept. -4(0)+3y=10 y=10/3 y intercept is (0,10/3) -4x+3(0)=10 x=-10/4 x intercept is (-10/4,0)
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.
What is the intercept for y equals x plus 10?
y - intercept = 10x - intercept = -10y- intercept: x = 0y = x + 10y = 0 + 10y = 10x - intercept: y = 0y = x + 100 = x + 10x + 10 = 0x = -10
How do you find x intercept and the meaning and y intercept?
solve the x and you find the y
How do you find x-intercept?
To find the x-intercept you need to set y=0 in your equation. To find the y-intercept you need to set x=0 in your equation.
How do you find the x and y intercept of -5x plus 10y equals 20?
Basically, the x-intercept is what x equals when y=0, and the y-intercept is what y equals when x=0. To find the x intercept, set y equal to 0. -5x+10(0)=20 -5x+0=20 -5x=20 divide both sides by -5 x=-4 so the x intercept is (-4,0) To find the y intercept, set x equal to 0. -5(0)+10y=20 0+10y=20 10y=20 divide both sides by 10 y=2 so the y intercept is (0,2)
What is y intercept and x intercept of y x plus 8?
To find the y intercept put zero in for x and solve. To find the x intercept put zero in for y and solve. (0,8) and (-8,0)
How do you find x intercept?
to find the y-intercept you plug in your x and y values in to the equation of y=mx+b. b is the y intercept and m is the slope. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and find value of x that satisfies the equation. If it is a line in the form y=mx+b, then the x-intercept will be at x= -b/m
How do you find x and y intercepts?
if you are looking at a graph the y intercept is when the graph crosses the y axis and the x intercept is when the graph crosses the x axis. if you have a formula... plug zero in for x to find the y intercept, and plug zero in for y to find the x intercept
How do you find the x and y-intercepts for the graph of the equation 6x-5y equals 60?
When y is 0 then x intercept is at (10, 0) When x is 0 then y intercept is at (0, -12)
Can you find the x-intercept -2x - y equals -10?

How do you find the intercepts of 4y-12 equals 4x?
To find the y-intercept you substitute in 0 for x and solve. To find the x- intercept you substitute in 0 for y and solve. If you do it correctly you should find the x-intercept to be -3 and the y-intercept to be 3.
