Fill in the blank to correctly complete each sentence. The x-intercept of the graph of 2x + 5y = 10 is ________.

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recall that the x-intercept of a graph is the point where the graph crosses the x-axis. At this point, the value of y is 0.
To find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0 into the equation of the line: \(2x + 5(0) = 10\).
Simplify the equation after substitution: \(2x = 10\).
Solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 2: \(x = \frac{10}{2}\).
The x-intercept is the point where \(x\) equals this value and \(y = 0\), so the x-intercept is \((x, 0)\).
