Answer:

y intercept is 10 (0,10)

x intercept is 5 (5,0)

Explanation:

The y intercept is 10. That's easy to see bc the equation is in the form y = mx + b where b is the y intercept. As a coordinate that would be (0,10)

So to find the x intercept, set y equal to zero and solve.

y = 10-2x

0 = 10-2x

-10 = -2x

divide both sides by -2

5 = x

So the x intercept is at 5. As a coordinate, that would be (5,0)
