Answer:

(18/5, 0) is the x intercept

(0,-2) is the y intercept

Explanation:

-5x+9y = -18

Set y = 0 and solve for x to find the x intercept

-5x +0 = -18

Divide each side by -5

x = -18/-5

x = 18/5

(18/5, 0) is the x intercept

Set x = 0 and solve for y to find the y intercept

0 +9y = -18

Divide each side by 9

y = -18/9

y = -2

(0,-2) is the y intercept
