We can find the x-intercept when y=0 so replacing y for 0 we have


\begin{gathered} -5x+2(0)=10 \\ -5x=10 \\ x=(10)/(-5)=-2 \end{gathered}

The x-intercept is (-2,0).

Now we are going to replace x for 0 to find the y-intercept


\begin{gathered} -5(0)+2y=10 \\ 2y=10 \\ y=(10)/(2)=5 \end{gathered}

The y-intercept is (0,5).

For the graph of 4x -9y=12 we have that the x-intercept is (3,0) and the y-intercept is (0,-4/3)
