Question

If the x-intercept of a linear graph is 1 and the y-intercept is -3, what will be the new x-intercept and y-intercept if the line is translated (moved) up 3 units?

Answer 1

Answer:

New x-intercept:  (0,0).  New y-intercept:  (0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept will change from (0, -3) to (0, 0).  The equation of the new line will thus be y = 3x + 0, or just y = 3x.  The new x-intercept will be (0,0).

The x-intercept will change from (1,0) to (4, 0)
