Woofie · Answer 1

The y-intercept is found by setting x to 0. By doing this, we find that y=8. So, 8 is the y-intercept.

The x-intercept is found by setting y to 0. We now have:

0=4/5x+8

We can subtract 8:

-8=4/5x

By dividing - 8 by 4/5, we find that x = - 10.

So, - 10 is the x-intercept.

Grace Kline · Answer 2

The y intercept is 8 and the x intercept is 10
