Question

What are the intercepts of the equation? Graph the equation.

5x + 2y = 10


x-intercept: (5,0)
y-intecept: (0,2)

x-intercept: (2,0)
y-intercept: (0,5)

x-intercept: (2,0)
y-intecept: (0,5)

x-intercept: (5,0)
y-intercept: (0,2)

Answer 1

X-intercept: when y equals 0
Y-intercept: when x equals 0

So to find the x intercept, plug in 0 in the equation for y and solve for x. And vice versa

Answer 2

I understand that part. But I don't understand what it would look like on a graph.

Answer 3

Alright well if you know where the line intercepts the x and y axis, pick the line that crosses where it should

Answer 4

So , it would be the 1st graph ?

Answer 5

No, what did you get for your intercepts

Answer 6

(5,0) (0,2)

Answer 7

ur x's and y's are backwards

Answer 8

(x, y )

Answer 9

Yep, should be (0,5) (2,0)

Answer 10

oh . . .

Answer 11

So it would be the second graph.

Answer 12

thanks .(:

Answer 13

You're welcome
