In analytic geometry, using the common convention that the horizontal axis represents a variable x and the vertical axis represents a variable y, a y-intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects the y-axis of the coordinate system. As such, these points satisfy x = 0.
To find the height of the cactus, make a ratio.
58 inches divided by 4 feet equals x inches divided by 8 feet.
58/4 = x/8
14.5 = x/8
116 = x
The height of the cactus is 116 inches.
