Find x-intercepts and y-intercepts step by step

The calculator will try to find the x- and y-intercepts of the given function, expression, or equation.

Like x+2y=3, y=2x+5 or x^2+3x+4.

If the calculator did not compute something or you have identified an error, or you have a suggestion/feedback, please write it in the comments below.

Your Input

Find find the x- and y-intercepts of $$$4 x + 5 y = 15$$$.

Solution

To find the x-intercepts, substitute $$$y = 0$$$ into the equation and solve the resulting equation $$$4 x = 15$$$ for $$$x$$$ (use the equation solver).

To find the y-intercepts, substitute $$$x = 0$$$ into the equation and solve the resulting equation $$$5 y = 15$$$ for $$$y$$$ (use the equation solver).

Answer

x-intercept: $$$\left(\frac{15}{4}, 0\right) = \left(3.75, 0\right)$$$.

y-intercept: $$$\left(0, 3\right)$$$.
