Question

What are the intercepts of `-4x+10y=8`?

Answer 1

`color(crimson)("x-intercept = -2, y-intercept = 4/5"`

Explanation:

`-4x + 10y = 8`

`-(4/8)x + (10/8) y = 1, " making R H S = 1"`

`-(1/2)x + (5/4)y = 1`

`x / (-2 ) + y / (4/5) = 1`

`color(crimson)("x-intercept = -2, y-intercept = 4/5"`
