The line produced by the equation y = 4x - 5 crosses the vertical axis at y = 5. True or False. 

Solution:

The given statement is ‘false’.

Given equation of line y = 4x - 5 --- (1)

When the curve crosses the y-axis, x = 0.

Substitute x = 0 in (1).

y = 4(0) - 5

y = -5

.

Therefore, line cuts/crosses y-axis at (0, -5).

The line produced by the equation y = 4x - 5 crosses the vertical axis at y = 5. True or False.

Summary:

The line produced by the equation y = 4x - 5 crosses the vertical axis at y = 5 is false.
