Given the relation y = x2 + 1, identify the x- and y- axis intercepts.
This will not be in real numbers but the value of x will be in complex number domain.
Put x = 0, then y-intercept will be 1
y = x2 + 1 would be clearer if written y = x^2 + 1. You need to use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation. At a y-intercept, x=0. To find the y-intercept, please let x=0 in y = x^2 + 1 and find the value of y. Write your y-intercept as (0, ? )
But if you have y = 0, then x intercept will be x = \[\sqrt{-1}\]. So x - i (iota).
x = i
this is trigonometry
actually it would be deez but thats besides the point
Once again: "At a y-intercept, x=0. To find the y-intercept, please let x=0 in y = x^2 + 1 and find the value of y. Write your y-intercept as (0, ? )" Please note: y would NOT be 0 if x=0.
appreciate it
