Instructions: Find the intercepts of the following equation in Standard Form.

Solution:
The equation of the line is given below as
[tex]x+5y=-5[/tex]Step 1:
To figure out the x-intercept, we will put y=0 and solve for x
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+5y=-5 \\ x+5(0)=-5 \\ x=-5 \\ (-5,0) \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2:
To figure out the y-intercept.
we will put x=0 and solve for y
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+5y=-5 \\ 0+5y=-5 \\ \frac{5y}{5}=\frac{-5}{5} \\ y=-1 \\ (0,-1) \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence,
The final answer is
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-intercept\Rightarrow(-5,0) \\ y-intercept\Rightarrow(0,-1) \end{gathered}[/tex]
