Question

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the equation -5x+y=30

Answer 1

Answer:

• x-intercept: -6
• y-intercept: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

You can put the equation into intercept form by dividing by 30:

  -5x/30 + y/30 = 1

  x/(-6) + y/30 = 1

Intercept form is ...

  x/(x-intercept) +y/(y-intercept) = 1

This lets us recognize the x-intercept as -6 and the y-intercept as 30.
