<span>The fraction of baked goods not sold is 6/10. The numerator is the number of left over baked goods (10-4 -6) and the denominator is the total loaves of bread (10). An equivalent fraction is 12/20. This was obtained by multiplying the original fraction by two (6 x2 = 12 and 10 x2 =20).</span>

$y=0.5x-2\implies y=\cfrac{x}{2}-2\implies \stackrel{x-intercept}{0=\cfrac{x}{2}-2} \\\\\\ 2=\cfrac{x}{2}\implies 4=x\qquad \qquad \boxed{(4~~,~~0)} \\\\\\ \stackrel{y-intercept}{y=0.5(0)-2}\implies y=-2\qquad \qquad \boxed{(0~~,~~-2)}$

$y=-0.4x+2\implies y=-\cfrac{4x}{10}+2\implies y=\cfrac{2x}{5}+2 \implies \stackrel{x-intercept}{0=\cfrac{2x}{5}+2} \\\\\\ -2=\cfrac{2x}{5}\implies -10=2x\implies \cfrac{-10}{2}=x\implies -5=x~\hfill \boxed{(-5~~,~~0)} \\\\\\ \stackrel{y-intercept}{y=-0.4(0)+2}\implies y=2\qquad \qquad \boxed{(0~~,~~2)}$
