The linear function is
The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0.
\ (Substitute 0 for x)
(Multiply:
)
(Apply Additive identity property:
)
(Divide each side by 5)
(Cancel common factors)
(Divide:
)
The y-intercept is 4. The graph crosses the y-axis at (0, 4).
The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0.
\ (Substitute 0 for x)
(Multiply:
)
(apply Additive identity property:
)
(Divide each side by
2)
(Cancel common terms)
(Divide:
)
The x-intercept is -10. The graph crosses the x-axis at (-10, 0).
