How do you find the x and y intercepts for #y=100#?

Answer 1

Nathan Axel

y-intercept #= 100#, NO x-intercept.

#y = 100#

#y / 100 = 1#

The horizontal line given will never cross the x-axis.

A horizontal line (other than y = 0) will not have an x-intercept.

The line y = 0 is another special case since y = 0 is the equation of the x-axis.

The y-intercept will always be the number in the equation.

To find the x-intercept of the equation (y = 100), set (y = 0) and solve for (x).

[0 = 100]

Since this equation has no solution, there is no x-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, simply read the value of (y) when (x = 0).

[y = 100]

So, the y-intercept is ((0, 100)).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
