Concept explainers
Find the X and y intercepts from the graph.
Answer to Problem 2CYP
Option J: No x − intercept, y − intercept is 150 is correct.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Options are given: F: x – intercept is 0, y – intercept is 150 G: x – intercept is 150, y – intercept is 0 H: x – intercept is 150, no y – intercept J: No x – intercept, y – intercept is 150 |
Concept Used:
The x -intercepts are where the graph crosses the x -axis, and the y -intercepts are where the graph crosses the y -axis.
Then, algebraically,
- an x -intercept is a point on the graph where y is zero, and
- a y -intercept is a point on the graph where x is zero.
More specifically,
- an x -intercept is a point in the equation where the y -value is zero, and
- a y -intercept is a point in the equation where the x -value is zero.
Calculation:
Find the x − intercept, look for the point where the line crosses the x − axis.
In the graph there is no point where the line crosses the X − axis, it a line parallel to x − axis.
Find the y − intercept, look for the point where the line crosses the y − axis.
In the graph there is a point (0,150) where the line starts and parallel to x − axis.
Y − Intercept = 150.
Option J: No x − intercept, y − intercept is 150 is correct.
Thus, option J: No x − intercept, y − intercept is 150 is correct.
