To find the x-intercepts of the graph of an equation, let y be zero and solve the equation for x. To find the y-intercepts of the graph of an equation, let x be zero and solve the equation for y. 2. Symmetry helps in sketching a graph because you need only half as many points to plot. Answers will vary. 3. 3 2 y x =− + 3 x-intercept: ( ) 2, 0 y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3 Matches graph (b). 4. 2 y x = − 9 x-intercepts: ( )( ) −3, 0 , 3, 0 y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3 Matches graph (d). 5. 2 y x = − 3 x-intercepts: ( ) 3, 0 , 3, 0 ( ) − y-intercept: ( ) 0, 3 Matches graph (a). 6. 3 yx x = − x-intercepts: ( )( )( ) 0, 0 , 1, 0 , 1, 0 − y-intercept: ( ) 0, 0 Matches graph (c).
