Question 118036: Please help me solve this equation: find x-intercept of -2y=5x-12
Answer by ilana(307) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The x-intercept is where the line hits the x-axis, so it is where y=0. Plug in 0 for y, and you get 0=5x-12. So 5x=12 and x=12/5 or 2.4. So the point is (2.4,0).
