HELP DUE IN 15 MINUTES!!!

Determine the intercepts of the line.
Do not round your answers.

7x − 5 = 4y − 6

1. x-intercept: ( , )
2. y-intercept: ( , )

Answer 1

o find the intercepts, that is where the line crosses the x and y axes

• let x = 0, in the equation for the y-intercept

• let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept

x = 0

⇒ - 5 = 4y ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = - ← y- intercept

y = 0

7x - 5 = - 6x ( add 6x to both sides )

13x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )

13x = 5 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = ← x- intercept

Answer 2

Answer:

X-intercept: ( - 1/7,0)

Y-intercept: (0,1/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-5+6=4y

7/4x +1/4 = y

7/4x = - 1/4

X = (-1/4)/(7/4)

X= - 1/7

Y-int. 1/4
