Question

5x-2y=10

Answer 1

What do you have to do with it?

Answer 2

find the x an y intercepts

Answer 3

change it to the y=mx+b form

Answer 4

Well, the x-intercept is the point where the plot cuts the x-axis. This occurs when y=0. So the x-intercept is given by

5x -2(0) = 10 so that x = 10/5 = 2

i.e. x-intercept occurs when x=2.

The y-intercept is found for x=0. Here, 5(0)-2y=10 so that y = 10/(-2) = -5.

Your y-intercept is at y=-5.

Answer 5

to find xintercept set y=0 solve for x
to find yintercept set x=0 solve for y
