Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 5x − 6y = 30 and select the appropriate option below.

 The x-intercept is (6, 0), the y-intercept is (0, –5).
 The x-intercept is (0, 6); the y-intercept is (–5, 0).
 The x-intercept is (5, 0); the y-intercept is (0, –6).
 The x-intercept is (0, 5); the y-intercept is (–6, 0).

nnesha · Answer

x -intercept when line cross x-axis when y=0 so replace y by 0 solve for x
y-intercept when line cross y-axis when x=0 so replace x by 0 solve for y
