Question 669923: I have looked an cannot find these answers. I am stumped! Please help with these two questions.
1.) Find the coordinates of the x-intercept.
-x + 5y = -15
2.)Find the y-intercept.
-2x - y = -10

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1) -x + 5y = -15
5y = x - 15
highlight%28y+=+%281%2F5%29x+-+3%29
...
The x intercept is where y=0
0 = %281%2F5%29x - 3
1%2F5x = 3
x = 15
(15, 0)
...
2) -2x - y = -10
highlight_green%28y+=+-2x+%2B+10%29
...
The y intercept is where x=0
y = -2(0) + 10
y = 10
(0, 10)
...
