x-Intercept, Zero, Root, Solution: Four Names, Same Thing | Algebra 1

There is no other name for the y-intercept, but the x-intercept has several. It is also called a zero, because the y-coordinate on an x-intercept is always 0. It is called a root, because x-intercepts sit on the ground, the x-axis. And it is called a solution, because it is the answer to the equation f(x) = 0. So when a test asks for the zeros, the roots or the solutions, look for the x-intercepts. Chapters: 0:00 Another name for the y-intercept?
