To find the y intercept of the line y=2x+10, we must substitute x=0 into the equation.

therefore: y=2(o)+10=10. Therefore the y-intercept is 10.

Shortcut: the y intercept of any line in the form y=mx+b is simply 'b'.

To find the x-intercept, we substitute y=0 into the equation.

Therefore 0=2x+10

-10=2x

-5=x

Therefore, the x-intercept is -5.

Shortcut: the x intercept of any line in the form y=mx+b is simply -b/m.
