    Y-Intercept of A Line

    How the equation of a line relates to the graph of its y-intercept

    The Y-Intercept of a line is the point where a line's graph intersects (crosses) the Y-axis.
    • A y-intercept of 3 means that a line's graph intersects the Y-axis at the point (0,3).
    • A  y-intercept of  -4 means that the graph of a line crosses the Y-axis at the point (0,-4).




    Example of the Y-Intercept picture of y-intercept of linear equation

     

     

    In the diagram on the left, the y-intercept is 2 which is the point (0,2).
