Graphing a Line with Intercepts
At about the 0:37 mark, the teacher says the value on my y-intercept is gonna be 0; he should have said y-axis instead of y-intercept.
At about the 2:02 mark, the teacher writes y=-11.5; he should have written y=-10.5. Because of this, he draws the line incorrectly. The line should go through the point (0,-10.5) instead of (0,-11.5).
Finding the x and y intercept and then graph
I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.

Staff Review
This lesson explains what x and y-intercepts are, and it shows how to find them when you are given the equation of a line. Then, it shows how to graph the line once you know what the intercepts are.
