Answer: x-intercept = 7/5 = 1.40000
y-intercept = -7/4 = -1.75000
Step-by-step explanation: Solve 4y-5x+7 = 0
"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.
In this formula :
y tells us how far up the line goes
x tells us how far along
m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is
b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis
The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line 4y-5x+7 = 0 and calculate its properties
Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -1.750 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 0.750. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 0.750 - (-1.750) = 2.500 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)
Slope = 2.500/2.000 = 1.250
