What are the x- and y- intercepts for the graph of 3x+y=15

1 answer:

6 0

To make the equation easier to look at change it to this:
y = 15 - 3x
To find the x intercept say y = 0.
0 = 15 - 3x
Subtract 15 from each side.
-15 = -3x
Divide each side by -3.
5 = x <–––– x-intercept
The y-intercept of the equation is 15.
Hope this helps!

Viktor [21]

Answer:

$138

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first turn the words into a mathematical equation by substituting words with the information we have:

Total earning - ( Price of three books)

$180 - (Price of one book x 3)

$180 - ($14 x 3)

Finally, after we have created the mathematical equation, we solve it!

$180 - ($14 x 3)

$180 - $42

$138
