\(ex. a\)
\(What\,\,is\,\,the\,\,y\,\,intercept?\)
\(10x + 2y = 15\)
\(10(0) + 2y = 15\)
\(2y = 15\)
\(y = \dfrac{15}{2} = 7.5\)
\(What\,\,is\,\,the\,\,x\,\,intercept?\)
\(10x + 2(0) = 15\)
\(10x = 15\)
\(10x = 15\)
\(x = \dfrac{15}{10} = \dfrac{3}{2} = 1.5\)
\(What\,\,is\,\,the\,\,y\,\,intercept?\)
\(10x + 2y = 15\)
\(10(0) + 2y = 15\)
\(2y = 15\)
\(y = \dfrac{15}{2} = 7.5\)
\(What\,\,is\,\,the\,\,x\,\,intercept?\)
\(10x + 2(0) = 15\)
\(10x = 15\)
\(10x = 15\)
\(x = \dfrac{15}{10} = \dfrac{3}{2} = 1.5\)
