Question

Find the x- and y-intercept of the line.

-7/5x -4y = 7




A.
x -intercept is -7/4; y-intercept is 5


B.
x -intercept is 5; y-intercept is 7/4


C.
x -intercept is 5; y-intercept is -7/4


D.
x -intercept is -5; y-intercept is -7/4

Answer 1

-7/5x -4y = 7

x -intercept; y =0
-7/5x -4(0) = 7
-7/5x = 7
x = 7 (-5/7)
x = -5


y -intercept; x =0
-7/5(0) -4y = 7
-4y = 7
y=-7/4

answer:

D.
x -intercept is -5; y-intercept is -7/4
