Remark
If the lines are parallel then triangle RQS will be similar to triangle RTP
From that, all three lines in one triangle will bear the same ratio to all three lines of the second triangle.

PQ = 8
QR = 5
RS = 15
ST = x + 3
Ratio
QR/RP = RS/RT
Sub and solve
RP = 5 + 8
RP = 13
RT = 15 + x + 3
RT = 18 + x
5/13 = 15 / (18 + x) Cross multiply
5(18 + x) = 195 Remove the brackets on the left.
90 + 5x = 195 Subtract 90 from both sides.
5x = 105 Divide by 5
x = 105/5

Answer:
x-intercept is -1; y-intercept is 0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercept is relatively easy to read off. It's the x-value where the graph crosses the x-axis, and here is (-1,0).
The y-intercept is best estimated as (0,+0.5).
The correct answer is the 3rd one on the list.
The sum of -5a and 3 is greater than 1.
