Line Eqn---->2x-5y=13
Following Slope-Intercept Formsystem%28y=mx%2Bb%29
5y=2x-13--->cross%285%29y%2Fcross%285%29=%282x-13%29%2F5
y=%282%2F5%29x-%2813%2F5%29, wheresystem%28Slope=2%2F5%2CYintercept=-13%2F5%29
Let fy=0:--->0=%282%2F5%29x-%2813%2F5%29---->%282%2F5%29x=13%2F5

highlight%28x=13%2F2%29
Let fx=0:--->y=%282%2F5%29%280%29-13%2F5=highlight%28-13%2F5=y%29
Let's plot the intercepts:
