This equation is in standard form, if you put it into slope-intercept form, you will be able to graph it. Once you graph it you will be able to find the intercepts.
Lets rearrange the equation into the form y = mx + b:
5x - 3y = 15
-3y = 15 - 5x
Divide by -3:
y = 5x/3 - 5
Here we know that b (-5) is the y-intercept, and we can find the x-intercept by starting at the y-intercept and using the slope till we get the x-intercept. Or you can set y = 0 and solve for x, either way you get x-intercept = 3.
