The equation 7x + 5y = 100 is in standard form. This form tells us the x and y intercepts easily.

Question

What are the x and y intercepts?

Answer 1

To find the x-intercept, we set y = 0 and solve for x:

7x + 5(0) = 100
7x = 100
x = 100/7

Therefore, the x-intercept is (100/7, 0).

To find the y-intercept, we set x = 0 and solve for y:

7(0) + 5y = 100
5y = 100
y = 100/5
y = 20

Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 20).

Answer 3

I apologize for the incorrect response. Let me correct it:

To find the x-intercept, we set y = 0 and solve for x:

7x + 5(0) = 100
7x = 100
x = 100/7

Therefore, the x-intercept is (100/7, 0).

To find the y-intercept, we set x = 0 and solve for y:

7(0) + 5y = 100
5y = 100
y = 100/5
y = 20

Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 20).
