What is the x-intercept of 2x + 5y = -10?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The x-intercept is the point on the x-axis at which the graph crosses the x-axis. What you know about that point is that its y-value is zero. This allows you to solve for x.

which means?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

In other words, plug in 0 for y, and solve for x

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

solve 2x + 5(0) = -10

yes
