Intercept is where a line crosses the axis. So, where would you cross the y axis and where would you cross the x axis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um im not sure

here's a blank xy axis |dw:1442287276968:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

`y-intercept is 9` where is that on the blank xy axis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LIke this?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

@anaaxcx click the pencil on my drawing then plot where you think 9 is on the xy axis

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

sorry, if the y intercept is 9, where would that be on the xy axis?

OpenStudy (cpinder):

That point is (3,9). The coordinate for an intercept on the y axis is (0, #) and for the x axis is (#, 0).

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the y axis is the vertical axis so the y intercept must go on this vertical axis somewhere
