okay new question.... The graph of 5x-2y=10 intersects the x-axis and the y-axis what are the ordered pairs for these two pairs of intersection A.(2,0) and (0,5)
B. (2,0) and (0,-5)
C.(-2,0) and (0,5)
D. (-2,0) and (0,-5)
If x = 0 find y.
If y = o find x.
That will give you the ordered pairs.
Any time you have a MC question, you can check the values in the problem if you are stuck.
(x,y) is the correct order in the ordered pairs.
so which choice i mean i think i get it but
please help fast
Tell me what you think the answer is...
idk um..... A Or B ???
i need the answer fast plz i have 10 more questions and then some in other subjects and its all due tom
To find the points where the graph of the equation 5x - 2y = 10 intersects the x-axis and the y-axis, we need to substitute zero for one variable at a time and solve for the other variable.
1. To find the intersection with the x-axis, substitute y = 0 into the equation:
5x - 2(0) = 10
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
So, one of the intersections is (2, 0).
2. Now, let's find the intersection with the y-axis. Substitute x = 0 into the equation:
5(0) - 2y = 10
-2y = 10
y = 10/(-2)
y = -5
Therefore, the second intersection is (0, -5).
Comparing these two points with the given options:
A. (2, 0) and (0, 5): This is incorrect based on our calculations.
B. (2, 0) and (0, -5): This is the correct answer, matching the points we found.
C. (-2, 0) and (0, 5): This is not the intersection points we found.
D. (-2, 0) and (0, -5): This is not the intersection points we found.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. (2, 0) and (0, -5).
