find the x-and y-intercepts of the following equation: 5x – 3y = 15
o (15,0) and (0, -15)
0 (-5,0) and (3,0)
0 (0.-5) and (3,0)
0 (0.3) and (-5,0)

The x - intercept of 5x - 3y = 15 is (3, 0)

The y -intercept of 5x - 3y = 15 is (0, -5)

Given equation is 5x - 3y = 15

To find: x - intercept and y -intercept

The x intercept is the point where the line crosses the x axis. At this point y = 0

The y intercept is the point where the line crosses the y axis. At this point x = 0.

Finding x - intercept:

To find the x intercept using the equation of the line, plug in 0 for the y variable and solve for x

So put y = 0 in given equation

5x - 3(0) = 15

5x = 15

x = 3

So the x - intercept is (3, 0)

Finding y - intercept:

To find the y intercept using the equation of the line, plug in 0 for the x variable and solve for y

So put x = 0 in given equation

5(0) - 3y = 15

-3y = 15

y = -5

So the y - intercept is (0, -5)
