Answer 1

Given the equation

`5+2=10`

(a)When x = 0

`\begin{gathered} 5(0)+2=10 \\ 2=10 \\ y=(10)/(2) \\ y=5 \end{gathered}`

We have the point: (0, 5)

When y=0

`\begin{gathered} 5+2(0)=10 \\ 5x=10 \\ x=(10)/(5) \\ x=2 \end{gathered}`

We have the point: (2, 0)

(b)The plot of the two points on a graph is shown below.
