Question

Given the equation 5x + y = 10 what is the x intercept

Answer 1

y=-(x/5)-2

Explanation:

5x + y = -10

y=-(x/5)-2

Answer 2

Answer: x = 2

Explanation:

To find the x intercept, set y equal to 0, and solve for x.

Given function:

5x + y = 10

Substitute 0 for y

5x + 0 = 10

Simplify

5x = 10

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 2

Therefore, the x intercept is 2.
