More specifically, 1  an x-intercept is a point in the equation where the y-value is zero, and. 2  a y-intercept is a point in the equation where the x-value is zero.  Find the x- and y-intercepts of 25x2 + 4y2 = 9.
In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as  y = mx + b ), the slope is the number  m  that is multiplied on the x, and  b  is the y-intercept, where the line crosses the y-axis.hen x = 0, the corresponding y-value is the y-intercept. In the particular context of word problems, the y-intercept (that is, the point when x = 0) also refers to the starting value; that is, the value when you started taking your reading or started counting the time and its changes.
