A x + B y = C Form: x- and y- intercepts. Lesson 5-7. Review. When given A x + B y = C, and asked to graph… y = m x + b **goal: is to change to y = m x + b, by ISOLATING the y y-intercept (aka “b”): The point at which a line on a graph intercepts/crosses the y -axis

Ax + By = C Form:x- and y- intercepts Lesson 5-7
Review When given Ax + By = C, and asked to graph… y = mx + b **goal: is to change to y = mx + b, by ISOLATING the y y-intercept (aka “b”): The point at which a line on a graph intercepts/crosses the y-axis x-intercept: The point at which a line on a graph intercepts/crosses the x-axis
X- and Y- Intercepts X- and Y- intercepts… what does that mean? WHERE on the x-axis/y-axis the line passes (Just TWO points on x and y)
X- and Y- Intercepts Find the x- and y- intercepts of the equation: 3x + 4y= 12 Find the x-intercept: 3x + 4y = 12 *let y = 0 3x + 4(0) = 12 3x = 12 x = 4 Find the y-intercept: 3x + 4y = 12 *let x= 0 3(0) + 4y= 12 4y= 12 y= 3
X- and Y- Intercepts Find the x- and y- intercepts of the equation: 2x – y = 4 Find the x-intercept: 2x – y = 4 *let y = 0 2x – (0) = 4 2x = 4 x = 2 Find the y-intercept: 2x – y= 4 *let x= 0 2(0) – y = 4 -y= 4 y= -4
Practice Find the x- and y- intercepts of: A) 10x – 2y = 20 B) 5x + 2y = -10
