Example Question #31 : X And Y Intercept
Find the x-intercept of the line 
Start by putting the equation into 
By definition, the x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis. As such, the y-coordinate of this point must be 
Plug 
Now, solve for 
The x-intercept is found at 
Example Question #32 : X And Y Intercept
Find the x-intercept for the line 
Start by putting the equation into
By definition, the x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis. As such, the y-coordinate of this point must be
Plug
Now, solve for
The x-intercept is found at
