Question

1. What is the x-intercept for the equation -2x+5y =-10?​

Answer 1

Think about the axis for a moment. You have the y-axis and the x-axis. The y-axis crosses the x-axis at y=0. Consequently the graph must also cross the x-axis when its equation has its y-value set to 0.

Likewise the graph will cross the y-axis when x=0

Solving your question

To find the x-intercept set y=0 giving

$- 2x + 5(0) = - 10 \\ - 2x = - 1 |?|$

Multiply both sides by ( -1) giving

$2x = 10$

Divide both sides by 2 giving

$\frac{2}{2} \times x = \frac{10}{2}$

But $\frac{2}{2} = 1 \:$ giving

$x = \frac{10}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

2x-5y=10 in slope intercept form is y=2/5x-2. The x intercept would be 5 and the y intercept would be -2. The slope is 2/5.
