ANSWER: y intercept = (0,-6/5) x intercept = (-3,0)
EXPLANATION: To find the y intercept you have to substitute the x with zero because the y intercept always lies on the y axis which means that they will always have the coordinates (0,y) The same goes for the x intercept. To find the x intercept you have to substitute the y with zero because the x intercept always lies on the x axis which means that they will always have the coordinates (x,0)
WORKING OUT: Given=2x+5x= -6
The y intercept) x=0 2(0)+5y= -6 5y= -6 y = -6/5 (divide each side of the equation by t to get the y alone) y intercept = (0,-6/5)
The x intercept) y=0 2x+5(0)= -6 2x= -6 x = -3 (divide each side of the equation by t to get the x alone) x intercept = (-3,0)
