-10x+y=14
When y intercepts x=0
-10(0)+y=14
y=14
y intercept = 14


-10x+y=14
When x intercepts y=0
-10x+0=14
-10x=14
-10x/-10=14/-10
x=-7/5
x intercept = -7/5

Find the x- and y-intercepts:
-10x%2By+=+14 For the x-intercept, set y = 0 and solve for x.
-10x%2B0+=+4 Divide both sides by -10.
x+=+-14%2F10 Simplify.
x+=+-7%2F5
The x-intercept is (-7%2F5,0)
For the y-intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y.
-10%280%29%2By+=+14
y+=+14
The y-intercept is (0,14)
