How Do You Find the X- and Y-Intercepts of a Line in Slope-Intercept Form?

To find the x-intercept of a given linear equation, plug in 0 for 'y' and solve for 'x'. To find the y-intercept, plug 0 in for 'x' and solve for 'y'. In this tutorial, you'll see how to find the x-intercept and the y-intercept for a given linear equation. Check it out!
How Do You Write an Equation for a Vertical Line?

Trying to find the equation of a vertical line that goes through a given point? Remember that vertical lines only have an 'x' value and no 'y' value. Follow along with this tutorial as you see how use the information given to write the equation of a vertical line.
How Do You Write an Equation for a Horizontal Line?

Trying to find the equation of a horizontal line that goes through a given point? Remember that vertical lines only have a 'y' value and no 'x' value. Follow along with this tutorial as you see how use the information given to write the equation of a horizontal line.
How Do You Graph a Vertical Line?

To graph a vertical line that goes through a given point, first plot that point. Then draw a straight line up and down that goes through the point, and you're done! To see this process in action, watch this tutorial!
How Do You Graph a Horizontal Line?

To graph a horizontal line that goes through a given point, first plot that point. Then draw a straight line left and right that goes through the point, and you're done! To see this process in action, watch this tutorial!
How Do You Use X- and Y-Intercepts To Graph a Line In Standard Form?

To find the x-intercept of a given linear equation, simply remove the 'y' and solve for 'x'. To find the y-intercept, remove the 'x' and solve for 'y'. In this tutorial, you'll see how to find the x-intercept and the y-intercept for a given linear equation. Check it out!
What's the X-Intercept?

When you have a linear equation, the x-intercept is the point where the graph of the line crosses the x-axis. In this tutorial, learn about the x-intercept. Check it out!
What Are Vertical Lines?

You may be able to guess that vertical lines are lines that go straight up and down, but did you know that all vertical lines have the same slope? In this tutorial, learn all about vertical lines including their slope and what the equation of a vertical line looks like!
What Are Horizontal Lines?

Ever look at the horizon when the sun is rising or setting? Know why it's called the horizon? It's a horizontal line! And just like the horizon, horizontal lines go straight left and right. In this tutorial, you'll learn all about horizontal lines including their slope and what the equation of a horizontal line looks like.
What's the Y-Intercept?

When you have a linear equation, the y-intercept is the point where the graph of the line crosses the y-axis. In this tutorial, learn about the y-intercept. Check it out!
How Do You Find the X- and Y-Intercepts of a Line If You Have a Graph?

When you're dealing with graphs, it's often important to identify the x-intercept and y-intercept. In this tutorial, you'll see how to find the x-intercept and y-intercept of a line. Take a look!
