Question

Find the y-intercept of the graph of 2x-5y=10

Answer 1

Answer:

y-intercept:  ( 0 , − 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept, substitute in  0  for  x  and solve for  y

Answer 2

Answer:

(0,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with:

$2x-5y=10$

We are going to want this equation in slope-intercept form.

$y=mx+b$

$mx=slope$

$b=y-intercept$

To get the equation in slope intercept from, start by subtracting $2x$ from both sides of the equation:

$-5y=-2x+10$

Now, divide both sides of the equation by $-5$:

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x -2$

$b=-2$

$(0,-2)$
