Find the y-intercept x=4
Problem
Solution
Identify the definition of a y-intercept. The y-intercept of a graph is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis, which occurs when the x-coordinate is equal to
0 Analyze the given equation. The equation
x=4 represents a vertical line where every point on the line has an x-coordinate of4 Substitute
x=0 into the equation to find the corresponding y-value. Since the equation strictly definesx as4 the conditionx=0 can never be satisfied.Conclude that because the line is vertical and does not pass through
x=0 it never crosses the y-axis.
