X intercept

X intercept calculator:

Introduction to calculate x y intercepts:

Calculating xy intercepts is nothing but they are going to Calculate the intercept on x axis and y axis. For any given line or parabola or any curve to Calculate the x intercept they must plug y = 0 and to Calculate the y intercept plug x = 0. They will see some issues to calculate the xy intercepts. They will see some example issues to calculate the xy intercepts.


They know the y – intercept type of a line equation is y = m x + c.

To calculate the y – intercept plug x = 0.

So y = m (0) + c

y = c

To calculate the x - intercept plug y = 0

0 = m x + c

m x = -c

x = -c / m
Example:

Calculate the xy intercepts for the given line. Where the line equation is y = 5x + 6
Solution:

To calculate the x - intercept plug y = 0

0 = 5x + 6

5x = -6

To know more:

Mathematics chart

Line segment

So x = -6 / 5

To calculate the x - intercept plug x = 0

So y = 5 (0) + 6

y intercept = 6
