What is the y-intercept for 10x+4y=20

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

find the x- and y-intercepts:

10x + 4y = 20

finding x-intercept when y = 0

10x = 20  

x = 2  Pt(2,0) the x intercept

finding y-intercept when x = 0

4y = 20

y = 5  Pt(0,5) the y intercept

x=-2

step-by-step explanation:

i began by flipping the problem to give me x= on the left (keeps it clearer for me).   so my problem simply became 10x-3=4x-6.  

1)   subtract 4x from the right side, which equals 0.   you do the same to the left of the equal as the right; therefore, subtract 4x from 10x, leaving 6x on the left.

              10x-3=4x-6   :   4x-4x on the right leaves only the -6        

2)             6x-3= 0-6 :    

                6x+3=   -6

3) divide
