Question

Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 5x − 6y = 30 and select the appropriate option below. (5 points)

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).

Answer 2

set the equation in slope intercept form which means y isolated.
-6y = -5x + 30
y = 5/6 x - 5

Y intercept is when you set x = 0 so y = (0,-5)
and x intercept when you solve for x so x = (6,0)
