Find the coordinates of the y-intercept and the x-intercept, in that order.
--2x + 5y = 0
A) (0, -2) (-1, 0)
B) (0, 0) (0, 0)
C) (0, -1) (0, -2)
D) (-1, 0) (-2, 0)

The y-intercept occurs when x=0, substituting x=0 in the equation gives 5y=0, so y=0. The x-intercept occurs when y=0, substituting y=0 in the equation gives -2x=0, so x=0. Therefore, both intercepts are at (0,0).
