Answer:
x intercept: 15/8 and yintercerpt is 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
to find y intercept you have to put equation in standard form.
10y=-8x+15
y=--4/5x+3/2
x intercept is when y=0, so we plug in 0
0=-4/5x+3/2
4/5x=3/2
x=15/8
Answer:
5x + 4y + 12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the point-slope equation of a straight line: y - k = m(x - h):
Here we are given the point (h, k): (-8, 7) and the slope m = -5/4. Inserting this info into the equation give above, we get: y - 7 = (-5/4)(x + 8).
We must put this equation into "standard form" Ax + By + C = 0.
Multiply all three terms by 4 to remove fractions: 4y - 28 = -5(x + 8), or
4y - 28 + 5x + 40 = 0
Rearranging these terms, we get 5x + 4y + 12 = 0, which is the desired equation in standard form.
