This week in math, my class learned how to find the x-intercept and y-intercept of equations. It is a lot simpler than you would think, as all you need to do is when you want to find the x-intercept of an equation, you need to make the y (doesn’t matter where it is) zero. After that, you need to pull all the variables and the numbers on separate sides. As an example, if you want to find the y-intercept of y = 4x + 7, make 4 a zero, which will then give you an answer of -7/4. I got this because when I changed the x to a 0, I just needed to do -7 and 4, and since you can’t divide it, you would just put the fraction there. If you want to find the X intercept, it is the same thing, except you change Y to a zero. Another thing that I found out during this week was that to find out the slope of an equation, it will always be the number before the x and the intercept (y-intercept) will be the last number or the one without a coefficient.
