Using InterceptsA diver explored the ocean floor 120 feet below the surface

and then ascended at a rate of 30 feet per minute. The graph shows the diver’s elevation below sea level during the ascent.

The x-intercept is 4. It represents the time

that the diver reaches the surface or when

depth = 0.

The y-intercept is -120. It represents the

diver’s elevation at the start of the ascent

when time = 0.

The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of thepoint where the graph intersects the y-axis.The x-coordinate of this point is always 0.

The x-intercept is the x-coordinate of the point where the graph intersects the x-axis. The y-

coordinate of this point is always 0.

Finding Intercepts

The graph intersects the y-axis at (0, -3).

Find the x- and y-intercepts.

The y-intercept is -3.

The graph intersects the x-axis at (-4, 0).The x-intercept is -4.

The x-intercept is 4.

B) 3x - 2y = 12

To find the x-intercept, replace y with 0 and solve for x.

3x - 2y = 123x - 2 (0) = 12

3x - 0 = 12

3x = 123x = 12 3 3

To find the y-intercept, replace x with 0 and solve for y.

3x - 2y = 123 (0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12-2y = 12 -2 -2

y = -6

Travel ApplicationThe Sandia Peak Tramway in Albuquerque, New Mexico, travels a distance of about 4500 meters to the top of Sandia Peak. Its

speed is 300 meters per minute. The function f (x) = 4500 - 300x gives the tram’s distance in meters from the top of the peak after x minutes. Graph this function and find the intercepts. What does each intercept

represent?

Neither time nor distance can be negative, so choose several nonnegative values for x. Use the function to

generate ordered pairs.

x 0 2 5 10 15f(x) = 4500 - 300x 4500 3900 3000 1500 0

Graph the ordered pairs. Connect the points with a line.

• y-intercept: 4500. This is the starting distance from the top (time = 0).

• x-intercept: 15. This the time when the tram reaches the peak (distance = 0).

Remember, to graph a linear function, you need to plot only two ordered pairs. It is often simplest to find the

ordered pairs that contain the intercepts.

A) 2x - 4y = 8Step1: Find the intercepts.

x-intercept:

2x - 4y = 82x - 4 (0) = 8

y-intercept:

2x - 4y = 82 (0) - 4y = 8

-4y = 8-4y = 8 -4 4y = -2
