  2. Y-intercept - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-intercept

    Graph = with the -axis as the horizontal axis and the -axis as the vertical axis.The -intercept of () is indicated by the red dot at (=, =).. In analytic geometry, using the common convention that the horizontal axis represents a variable and the vertical axis represents a variable , a -intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects the -axis of ...

  3. Line coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_coordinates

    Here m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. This system specifies coordinates for all lines that are not vertical. However, it is more common and simpler algebraically to use coordinates (l, m) where the equation of the line is lx + my + 1 = 0. This system specifies coordinates for all lines except those that pass through the origin.

  4. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abscissa_and_ordinate

    In common usage, the abscissa refers to the x coordinate and the ordinate refers to the y coordinate of a standard two-dimensional graph. [1] [2]The distance of a point from the y axis, scaled with the x axis, is called the abscissa or x coordinate of the point.

  5. Line (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(geometry)

    In polar coordinates, the equation of a line not passing through the origin—the point with coordinates (0, 0) —can be written = ⁡ (), with r > 0 and / < < + / Here, p is the (positive) length of the line segment perpendicular to the line and delimited by the origin and the line, and φ {\displaystyle \varphi } is the (oriented) angle from ...

  6. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    Likewise, (x, −y) are the coordinates of its reflection across the first coordinate axis (the x-axis). In more generality, reflection across a line through the origin making an angle with the x-axis, is equivalent to replacing every point with coordinates (x, y) by the point with coordinates (x′,y′), where

    “Where we’ve actually been able to prove content intercept, whether text or audio, the FBI has made individual victim notifications to all of those individuals or to their counsel,” he said.

  9. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    A non-vertical line can be defined by its slope m, and its y-intercept y 0 (the y coordinate of its intersection with the y-axis). In this case, its linear equation can be written = +. If, moreover, the line is not horizontal, it can be defined by its slope and its x-intercept x 0. In this case, its equation can be written
