What are the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of 5x-4y= -20

To find the intercepts, we can set the opposite variable equal to 0 and solve.

Let's find the x intercept first.

5x - 4(0) = -20

5x = -20

Divide both sides by 5.

x = -4

Now let's find the y intercept.

5(0) - 4y = -20

-4y = -20

Divide both sides by -4.

y = 5

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
