Lesson 4: Identifying Intercepts
LESSON 4: OPENER
Use the graph to answer the following questions.
1.
Identify the point on the line that represents the
y-intercept. What are the coordinates of this point?
2.
Identify the point on the line that represents the
x-intercept. What are the coordinates of this point?
3.
Use the x- and y-intercepts to calculate the slope of
the line.

Topic 10: Understanding slope and intercepts
LESSON 4: CORE ACTIVITY
The y-intercept is when x = 0 or when the line crosses the y-axis. Find the y-intercept for the following linear relationships.
Extra credit: Find the slope afterwards!
7) y = -5x + 3
8) y = 2x – 5
9) 2x + 3y = 6
10) y = -7x
