To get slope use
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
10 - 8 / 1 - 0 = 2/1 = 2
Slope = 2
The y-intercept is the coordinate point that has 0 as the x value.
(0, 8) is the y-intercept.

Explanation:
This is a self-answering question: you solve it by graphing the equations.
<em>The solution is where the lines intersect</em>. The point of intersection of the lines is the point that satisfies all the equations for the lines, hence is a solution to the system. If they do not intersect, there are no solutions. If the lines are coincident, there are an infinite number of solutions.

The equations can be graphed by any of a number of methods. (My favorite is to let a graphing calculator do it.) The method of choice depends on the coefficients and the form the equations are given in. Methods of graphing are a topic for a more lengthy discussion.
Answer:
(3, 0) and (5, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
we know that
The x-intercepts are the values of x when the value of y is equal to zero
so
For y=0
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have
so
substitute in the formula
so
x=3, x=5
therefore
The x-intercepts are (3,0) and (5,0)
