Question

X intercept for 2x +5y = -6

Answer 1

2x + 5y = -6
-5y -5y
___________
2x = -11y
__ ___
2 2
x = 5.5

Answer 2

Answer:

(-3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0.

                           2x +  5y   = -6

Set y = 0              2x + 5(0) = -6

                           2x            = -6

Divide each side by 2     x = -3

The x-intercept is at (-3, 0).
