Question

Find the x-and y-intercepts of the graph of 2x - 10y = 36. State your answers as
whole numbers or as improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

(18,0)

(0,-3.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the x-intercept:

2x - 10(0) = 36

2x = 36

/2      /2

x=18

(18,0)

Find the y-intercept:

2(0)- 10y = 36

10y=36

/10  /10

y = -18/5 or y = -3.6

(0,-3.6)
