Question

-40 =-5y + 8x
x-intercept:
y-intercept:

Answer 1

Y Intercept = (0,8)

x Intercept = (-5,0)

Explanation:

Rearrange to y=mx+c

-5y= -40-8x

-5y=-8x-40

Divide both sides by -5

y=8/5x+8

Y Intercept = (0,8)

X intercept; Find x when Y=0

0= 8/5x+8

8/5x = -8

x= -5

Hence;

X Intercept = (-5,0)
