Question

Find the x and y intercepts of 4x - 5y = 40 Is this correct and can someone explain why??

Answer 1

Answer:

no, the correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

for the x-intercept you would first add 5y to both sides giving you 4x=5y+40. then you would divide both sides by 4, so the final equation would be x=5/4y+10.

for the y-intercept you would subtract 4x from both sides, making -5y=-4x+40. then you would divide both sides by -5, making the final equation y=4/5x-8.
