Question

Which line is a graph of the equation: –2x + 5y = 10?

Answer 1

I WILL GIVE MEDALS!!

Answer 2

Hey there!
Welcome to openstudy!
Are we supposed to find the intercepts? Or are we supposed to match to a graph?

Answer 3

The question doesn't make much sense

Answer 4

I think there is supposed to be a graph

Answer 5

Oh I forgot hold on.

Answer 6

How do I post it??

Answer 7

to find y intercept, sub in 0 for x and solve
-2x + 5y = 10
-2(0) + 5y = 10
5y = 10
y = 2.....so your y intercept is (0,2)

to find x intercept, sub in 0 for y
-2x + 5y = 10
-2x + 5(0) = 10
-2x = 10
x = -5....so your x intercept is (-5,0)

now what graph has the intercepts of (0,2) and (-5,0) ??

Answer 8

I was thinking line D.

Answer 9

no...not D.
which line crosses the x axis at (-5,0) ? which line crosses the y axis at (0,2) ??

Answer 10

A

Answer 11

yep ^^ you got it :)
