Find the x- and y-intercept of the line whose equation is given by y + 5 = -20.
A) no x-intercept, y-intercept: (0, -25)
B) no x-intercept, y-intercept: (0, 5)
C) no x-intercept, y-intercept: (0, -20)
D) x-intercept: (0,0), y-intercept: (0, -25)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation y + 5 = -20 simplifies to y = -25, which is a horizontal line. It does not cross the x-axis, so there is no x-intercept. The y-intercept is where x=0, which is at (0, -25).
