Using the intercepts to graph the equation

X + 5y = 10

What points would I plot on the graph?

2 answers

when x = 0, the line hits the y axis at y = 2
so (0,2) is a point

when y = 0, the line hits the x axis at x = 10
so (10,0) is a point.

The equation is that of a straight line, so draw a line that goes through those two points.
2x + 5y=10
