Problems 15-22: Identifying x- and y-intercepts and Sketching Graphs

For each equation, we'll find the x- and y-intercepts.

Problem 15: 2x+5y=102x + 5y = 10

  1. x-intercept: Set y=0y = 0: 2x+5(0)=10x=52x + 5(0) = 10 \Rightarrow x = 5 x-intercept is (5,0)(5, 0).

  2. y-intercept: Set x=0x = 0: 2(0)+5y=10y=22(0) + 5y = 10 \Rightarrow y = 2 y-intercept is (0,2)(0, 2).

Problem 16: 3x4y=243x - 4y = -24

  1. x-intercept: Set y=0y = 0: 3x4(0)=24x=83x - 4(0) = -24 \Rightarrow x = -8 x-intercept is (8,0)(-8, 0).

  2. y-intercept: Set x=0x = 0: 3(0)4y=24y=63(0) - 4y = -24 \Rightarrow y = 6 y-intercept is (0,6)(0, 6).

Problem 17: 10x+5y=12010x + 5y = 120

  1. x-intercept: Set y=0y = 0: 10x=120x=1210x = 120 \Rightarrow x = 12 x-intercept is (12,0)(12, 0).

  2. y-intercept: Set x=0x = 0: 5y=120y=245y = 120 \Rightarrow y = 24 y-intercept is (0,24)(0, 24).

Problem 18: 2xy=82x - y = 8

  1. x-intercept: Set y=0y = 0: 2x=8x=42x = 8 \Rightarrow x = 4 x-intercept is (4,0)(4, 0).

  2. y-intercept: Set x=0x = 0: y=8y=8-y = 8 \Rightarrow y = -8 y-intercept is (0,8)(0, -8).

Problem 19: 2x4y=82x - 4y = 8

  1. Rewrite in slope-intercept form: y=12x2y = \frac{1}{2}x - 2.

    • Slope is 12\frac{1}{2}, intercepts can be found as below.
  2. x-intercept: Set y=0y = 0: 2x=8x=42x = 8 \Rightarrow x = 4 x-intercept is ( (4
