The following applet gives you a chance to select a line, and find the y-intercept and the x-intercept of the graph and the slope if you desire to.

This activity might not be viewable on your mobile device.Interactive exercise. Assistance may be required. Linear Functions - Finding slope and intercepts from graph

Instructions:

  1. On the graph there are two red dots, one on the x-axis (the x-intercept) and one on the y-axis (y-intercept).
  2. In the upper right hand corner fill in the blanks with the appropriate value for the x and y-intercept. Green check marks will appear if they are correct.

    3. NOTE: The intercepts are points, (4, 0) or (0, 5), the blanks are only asking for the specific value, x or y.

  3. Select "New Problem" and repeat several times.
