What is the x-intercept of this equation?

5x - 4y = 20

1 answer

To find the x-intercept of an equation, we set y equal to 0 and solve for x.

Given the equation 5x - 4y = 20, we substitute y with 0 and solve for x:

5x - 4(0) = 20
5x = 20
x = 4

Therefore, the x-intercept of the equation 5x - 4y = 20 is (4, 0).
