Question

how to find x-intercept and y-intercept?
example: 2 x squared + 3 y squared = 18 .

Answer 1

first put x equals 0

Answer 2

and substiute in th equation gives you

Answer 3

3y^2 equals 18

Answer 4

x-intercept means the point where curve crosses x axis so put y=0 in the given equation and find x intersept and for y intercept put x=0 to find the point where curve crosses y axis

Answer 5

y^2 equals 6

Answer 6

ahh.. got it. :) thank you. ^_^

Answer 7

ok gd

Answer 8

this for y intercept

Answer 9

and y equals 0 for the x intercept

Answer 10

eh how about, y = x^2 - 3x + 2, what is the y-intercept?

Answer 11

2

Answer 12

since x equals 0 and subs.

Answer 13

ahh... got it again.. :)
eh how about, y = x^3 - 2x^2 + x - 2 , what is the x-intercept?

Answer 14

x equals 2

Answer 15

take y equals 0 first

Answer 16

x^3 - 2x^2 +x-2 equals zero then take common factor x^2

Answer 17

x^2(x-2)+x-2 equals 0

Answer 18

x^2 (x-2) + 1 (x-2) = 0 .

Answer 19

take common x-2

Answer 20

x^2 + 1 (x-2) = 0.

Answer 21

no (x-2)(x^2+1)

Answer 22

ahh.. got it again. :) hihi.. thanks a lot. :)
eh, how about, how to know the symmetry of a function?
