  1. Indirectly we are asked for x and y intercepts because
    • The point at which a line crosses x axis is called its x intercept and there y coordinate is 0.
    • Similarly the point at which a line crosses y axis is called its y intercept and there x coordinate is 0
    Let us find out
    • f(x)=-5x-3
    Y intercept:–
    put x=0
    • y=-5(0)-3
    • y=-3
    (0,-3)
    X intercept
    put y=0
    • -5x-3=0
    • -5x=3
    • x=-3/5
    (-3/5,0)
