Hi,

find the x intercept, if any, and y intercept, if any, of the line, use the intercepts 

to sketch a graph of the line and find the slope of the line.

3x + 5y = -30  | y-intercept is (0,-6) x-intercept is (-10,0) 

 Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b 

 where m is the slope and b the y-intercept. 

3x + 5y = -30  OR y = (-3/5)x -6

Note: as y decreases by 3, x increases by 5.
