Question

Find the x- and y-intercepts for the equation. Then graph the equation.
-$-6 x-30 y=30$

A) $( 0 , - 1 ) , ( 5,0 )$ 
B) $( 0 , - 1 ) , ( - 5,0 )$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the x-intercept, we set y = 0 and solve for x:  
-6x - 30(0) = 30   
-6x = 30   
x = -5   
Therefore, the x-intercept is (-5, 0).  
To find the y-intercept, we set x = 0 and solve for y:  
-6(0) - 30y = 30    
-30y = 30   
y = -1   
Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, -1).  
Plotting these two points and drawing a line through them gives us the graph of the equation.
