Question 705748: I am trying to graph this line y+4/5x-10
I know th y intercept is (0,-10) I am having a hard time coming up with the x intercept what I came up with is (0,10.3)
x=-10-4/5
x=54/5
x=10.3

I think you meant to type Y = 4/5X - 10
--------------------
The standard eqaution of a line is Y = mX = b
Where m is the slope and b is the Y-intercept.
So yes, (0,-10) is the Y-intercept.
--------------------
The X intercept is found when Y is equal to zero.

Add 10 to both sides

Multiply both sides by 5/4

Simplify

The x-intercept is (12.5,0)
