Question

Determine the intercepts of the line.
8x-5y=-11

Answer 1

Intercept on y-axis is

`b=(11)/(5)`

Explanation:

Equation of line in slope intercept form is given as

`y=mx+b` ------(1)

where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Re-arranging g 8x-5y=-11 yields

`y=(8)/(5) x + (11)/(5)`----------(2)

Comparing equation (1) and equation (2)

`b=(11)/(5)`

Answer 2

if you're talking about slope intercept then

y= 8/5x + 11/5
