Question

How do you find the x and y intercept of `2x + 5y = 20`?

Answer 1

`x=10" and "y=4`

Explanation:

`"to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses"`
`"the x and y axes"`

`• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"`

`• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"`

`x=0to0+5y=20rArry=4larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"`

`y=0to2x+0=20rArrx=10larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"`
