At what point does the graph intersect the x axis?
Note that the line intersects only the Y-axis. In other words, it does not go through the X-axis at all.
Therefore, the answer is (d).
It does not intersect the x axis.
Which statement best describes the graph below?
A horizontal line at y = 2 (like in this graph) runs parallel to the x-axis and stays at a constant height. Since it never drops down to y = 0, it never touches the x-axis!
An x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis (y = 0), written as (x, 0). A y-intercept is where it crosses the y-axis (x = 0), written as (0, y).
No! The horizontal line is the x-axis itself, so it intersects at every point. Only horizontal lines where don't intersect the x-axis.
Set y = 0 in the line's equation and solve for x. If you get a specific x-value, that's your x-intercept. If the equation becomes impossible (like 2 = 0), there's no x-intercept.
Parallel means the lines never meet - they maintain the same distance apart forever. A horizontal line stays the same distance above (or below) the x-axis at all points.
