The x intercept is [tex](\frac{-2}{5}, 0)[/tex]

The y intercept is [tex](0, \frac{-2}{3})[/tex]

Solution:

Given equation is:

10x + 6y = -4

The x intercept is the point where the line crosses the x axis

The y intercept is the point where the line crosses the y axis

Find x intercept:

Substitute y = 0 in given equation

10x + 6(0) = -4

10x = -4

[tex]x = \frac{-4}{10}\\\\x = \frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

Thus the x intercept is [tex](\frac{-2}{5}, 0)[/tex]

Find y intercept:

Substitute x = 0 in given equation

10(0) + 6y = -4

[tex]6y = -4\\\\y = \frac{-4}{6}\\\\y = \frac{-2}{3}[/tex]

Thus the y intercept is [tex](0, \frac{-2}{3})[/tex]
