If the x intercept is a and the y intercept is b, then the equation of the line is
bx + ay = ab
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.
Assuming that you meant "x - 4y = 20", the x-intercept is x=20, and the y-intercept is y=-5.
Your equation does not have an x variable. So as-is would be a horizontal line (no x-intercept). If this was a typo and you meant to have x in one of the terms then it would have an x and y intercept. The y intercept is where it intersects the y-axis. The x coordinate of the y-axis is x=0, so substitute x=0 into the equation, and solve for y. To find the x-intercept, substitute y=0, and solve for x.
The x-intercept is equal to -b/m.
-1
A vertical line on a graph has infinite slope and no y-intercept. Its equation is [ x = a number ]. The number is the line's x-intercept.
The x-intercept is where the line intersects with, or crosses, the x axis. To find it, take the equation, put in 0 for y, and solve for x. The intercept will be (#,0).
To determine the intercepts of a line, you need to find where the line crosses the x-axis and y-axis. The x-intercept occurs when y = 0, and the y-intercept occurs when x = 0. If you have the equation of the line, you can substitute these values to find the respective intercepts. Please provide the equation of the line for specific intercept values.
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
y = {slope}x + {y intercept}
To find the y-intercept of a line, set the x-coordinate to zero in the line's equation. For example, if the equation is in the form (y = mx + b), the y-intercept is simply the value of (b). If the equation is in standard form, (Ax + By = C), rearrange it to solve for (y) when (x = 0). The resulting value of (y) at that point is the y-intercept.
If it a straight line with no y intercept, it must be parallel to the y-axis. So the equation is x = 3
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.
The equation of the line can be written as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since the x-intercept is a, the point (a, 0) lies on the line. Substituting these values into the equation, you can find the value of b. The final equation will be y = mx - m*a.
The X-intercept of a linear equation is the point where the line crosses the X-axis. This occurs when the value of Y is zero. To find the X-intercept, you can set Y to zero in the equation and solve for X. The X-intercept is typically represented as a coordinate point (X, 0).
A vertical line does not have a slope - negative or positive. It is not defined. A vertical line has no y intercept and, if its equation is x = c (for some number c), then the x-intercept is (c, 0).
At the x-intercept on the graph of the equation, y=0. Take the equation, set 'y' equal to zero, and solve the equation for 'x'. The number you get is the x-intercept.
