4x-5y=20
-5y=-4x=20
y=-4x/-5-20/-5
y=4x/5+4
y intercept (0,4)
Set y=0 & solve for the x intercept.
0=4x/5+4
4x/5=-4
4x=-20
x=-20/4
x=-5
x intercept (-5,0)

identify the x and y intercepts 4x-5y=20
-----------------
The y-intercept is at x=0, and v.v.
4x-5y=20
-5y=20
y = -4 --> (0,-4)
-----------------
4x-5y=20
4x=20
x = 5 --> (5,0)
