First multiply the equation by 5 to get y by itself.

Then subtract 35 from each side to get the integer by itself.
So, final answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
5x+15 =0
Subtract 15 from both sides:
5x+15-15= 0-15
By solving the like terms we get:
5x=-15
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = -15/5
Simplify:
x= -3...
The 5 is the number of years that the interest rate is fixed (at the initial amount set when you sign the mortgage contract)
The 1 represents the idea that the interest rate will change every year after the initial 5 years are up.
