Answer: 1/5 and -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept , we put x=0 in the equation;

y=5x -1

y = 5(0) -1

y = -1

To find th x-intercept, we put y=0 in the equation;

y=5x-1

(0) =5x-1

5x =1

Divide bothside by 5

5x/5 = 1/5

x = 1/5

The y - intercept is -1 and the

x-intercept is 1/5
