If my linear equation is 5y=6x-30, what would the x and y intercepts be?

Question

My linear equation is 5y =6x-30 so what are the x and y intercepts

Answer 1

The x-intercept is the value of x when y=0.  This is the point on the x-axis and has the point (x, 0). 

The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0.  This is the point on the y-axis and has the point (0, y). 

 

To find the x-intercept, set y=0 into the given equation and solve for x.

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 into the given equation and solve for y.
