Plot the x- and y-intercepts to graph the equation. y=−x−5

56

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept = (-5,0)

y-intercept = (0,-5)      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

This is an equation of the form , which is the equation of a straight line.

x-intercept:

It is the value when y is zero or the line passes through the x-axis.

It can be calculated as:

Thus, x-intercept = (-5,0)

y-intercept:

It is the value when x is zero or the line passes through the y-axis.

It can be calculated as:

Thus, y-intercept = (0,-5)

The attached image shows the x-intercept and y-intercept for the given straight line.
