ANSWER
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-intercept=-8 \\ x-intercept=\frac{8}{5}=1.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]EXPLANATION
We want to find the x and y-intercepts of the equation given.
To find the y-intercept, find the value of y when x is 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=5(0)-8=0-8 \\ y=-8 \end{gathered}[/tex]To find the x-intercept, find the value of x when y is 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=5x-8 \\ 5x=8 \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{8}{5}=1.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Those are the intercepts.
