Question

Identify the x- and y- intercepts of this equation


5X−4Y=20

Answer 1

[0010001111]... Hello User... [1001010101]
Here's your answer...

5x-4y = 20

The x-intercept is a point on this line with the coordinates (x, 0)
Putting it in this equation...

5x - 0 = 20
x = 4

The x-intercept is 4.

The y-intercept is a point on this line with the coordinates (0, y)
Putting it in this equation...

0 - 4y = 20
y = -5

The y-intercept is -5

Find the X and Y Intercepts 5x-4y=20

5x−4y=205x-4y=20

To find the x-intercept, substitute in 00 for yyand solve for xx.

5x−4⋅0=205x-4⋅0=20

Solve the equation.



Simplify the left side.

Tap for fewer steps...

Multiply −4-4 by 00.

5x+0=205x+0=20

Add 5x5x and 00.



Divide each term in 5x=205x=20 by 55.

5x5=2055x5=205

Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.



Cancel the common factor.

5x5=2055x5=205

Divide xx by 11.

x=205
