I try to solve this and I get 2 -4, but thats not one of the answers. Can you help me solve What is the x−intercept and y−intercept of the graph of 10x − 5y = 20?

x−intercept = (0, −4); y−intercept = (2, 0)

x−intercept = (0, 4); y−intercept = (−2, 0)

x−intercept = (−2, 0); y−intercept = (0, 4)

x−intercept = (2, 0); y−intercept = (0, −4)

*an x-intercept is a point on the graph where y is zero, and a y-intercept is a point on the graph where x is zero. Which means, If y=0, then 10x-5(0)=20 > x=2 > (2,0) < x-intercept If x=0, then 10(0)-5y=20 > y=-4 > (0,-4) < y-intercept So, I'm guessing the answer is the last one..

you are right, with a 5th glance at the problem I noticed that I answered it in my question... -_-
