Intercepts refer to points where a line or curve intersects with either the x-axis or the y-axis. There are two types of intercepts: x-intercepts and y-intercepts.
1. X-intercept: It is the point where a line or curve intersects with the x-axis. At the x-intercept, the y-coordinate is always zero. The x-intercept is represented as (x, 0).
2. Y-intercept: It is the point where a line or curve intersects with the y-axis. At the y-intercept, the x-coordinate is always zero. The y-intercept is represented as (0, y).
Intercepts are important in graphing equations and analyzing the behavior of functions. They provide valuable information about where a line or curve intersects with the coordinate axes.
