The circle equation is .
(Simplify)
First find the x-intercept let y = 0 in the original eequation.
\ (Substitute y = 0)
(Simplify)
(Simplify)
(Take square root each side)
(Simplify)
x = 3
\The x-intercept is 3.
Next find the y-intercept let x = 0 in the original eequation.
\ (Substitute x = 0)
(Simplify)
(Simplify)
(Take square root each side and
)
(Simplify)
(Simplify)
In this case roots are imaginary, so there is no y-intercepts.
The x-intercept is 3. and the y-intercepts are none.
