Polynomial Functions

With problems applying to modern-day topics like Netflix and McDonald's, math whizzes analyze graphs and investigate the slopes. In this algebra worksheet, learners identify the slope and y-intercept of the given equations. They graph...

In this slope-intercept form, students identify the x- and y-intercept form of a line. They graph equations using the slope and y-intercept. Students write the equation of a line that contains a pair of points. This one-page activity...

After defining intercept, Sal solves a simple equation to identify each intercept and then plots the line on a graph. This video would quite nicely complement an introductory lesson on graphing.

This is an interesting problem that approaches higher-degree polynomials from a different perspective. Given a third-degree polynomial, two known zeros, and a y-intercept, find the value of the polynomialÕs coefficients. This problem...

In a linear equation, the y-intercept is really just the point where the graph of the line crosses the y-axis.

Looking to teach your class how to find the y-intercept of a line using another point and the slope? Consider this video as an instructional tool. Learners can watch as a lecturer demonstrates how to find the y-intercept, using the...

Looking to teach your class how to find the y-intercept of a line using another point and the slope? Consider this video as an instructional tool. Learners can watch as a lecturer demonstrates how to find the y-intercept, using the...

Given a linear equation, find the x-intercept and the y-intercept to graph the line. Not sure what to do or where to start? Watch this video and see the instructor break it down and make it understandable.

The x-intercept is the point at which the line of the equation crosses the x-axis. The y-intercept is the point at which the line of the same equation crosses the y-axis. It's as easy as that. Look at your graph and note these locations.

Find the x and y intercepts in a given linear equation written in slope intercept form. Piece of cake! There are just two things to do. First, substitute 0 for x and solve to find the y-value. Then substitute 0 for y to find the value of...
