Question

True or False :

The y-coordinate of a point at which the

graph crosses or touches the x-axis is an x-intercept.

Short answer

The given statement is False .

Step-by-step solution

Given information:

The given statement is:

The y-coordinate of a point at which the

graph crosses or touches the x-axis is an x-intercept.

Step 2:

Example:$y=x+2$

Clearly, from the graph, we get, the y co-ordinate is zero for the x-intercept.

$\therefore$ The "x co-ordinate" of a point at which the graph crosses or touches the x-axis is an x-intercept.
