Determine which of the following statements about the intercepts of a line are true. more than one correct answer is possible.
a) an x-intercept occurs where the line crosses the x-axis
b) an x-intercept occurs when y is zero
c) an x-intercept occurs when x is zero
d) an x-intercept occurs where the line crosses the y-axis

A) An x-intercept occurs where the line crosses the x-axis.

B) An x-intercept occurs when y is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the intercepts of a line are the points where it crosses the two coordinate axes.

The point where a line crosses the y-axis is called "y-intercept".

The x-coordinate of the point where the line intersects the y-axis is zero (Observe the example attached)

The point where a line crosses the x-axis is called "x-intercept".

The y-coordinate of the point where the line intersects the x-axis is zero (Observe the example attached)

Therefore, based on this, you can conclude that these statements are true:

A) An x-intercept occurs where the line crosses the x-axis.

B) An x-intercept occurs when y is zero.
