Question

What are the x- and y-intercepts of −3x + 5y = 15?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -5   y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 5y = 15

cancel out the y

-3x + 5(0) = 15

-3x = 15

divide both sides by -3

x = -5

-3x + 5y = 15

cancel out the x

-3(0) + 5y = 15

5y = 15

divide both sides by 5

y = 3

Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

Y int = (0,3)
x int = (-5,0)
