Answer:

(-1/5, 0).

Explanation:

Where the line crosses the axis the value of y = 0.

5x - 2y + 1 = 0

Let y = 0, then:

5x - 2(0) + 1 = 0

5x + 1 = 0

5x = -1

x = -1/5.

So the point is (-1/5, 0).

Answer:

(-
(1)/(5) , 0 )

Explanation:

to find where the line crosses the x- axis, let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

5x - 2(0) + 1 = 0

5x - 0 + 1 = 0

5x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

5x = - 1 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = -
(1)/(5)

the line crosses the x- axis at (-
(1)/(5), 0 ) or ( - 0.2, 0 )
