Question

Determine the intercepts of the line,
2x + 5y = -6
y-intercept:
x-intercept:(

Answer 1

x=-3 , y= -6/5 or y= -1 1/5 or y= -1.2

Explanation:

x-intercept: y-intercept:

2x+5y= -6 2x+5y= -6

2x+5×0= -6 2×0+5y= -6

2x+0= -6 y= -6/5

2x= -6 Alternative form of solution would be:

x=-3 y= -1 1/5 or y= -1.2
