x-intercepts
Where curves land
X-intercepts are the points where a graph crosses the horizontal axis—where y equals zero.
A line may have one x-intercept, a parabola may have two, one, or none.
Finding x-intercepts means solving an equation for x when y is set to zero: The x-intercepts of the parabola are at -3 and 5.
Also called roots or zeros.
