0r
y = (5/3)x - 10
....
the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line is
where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
......
y = (5/3)x - 10
y-intercept = -10

To find the y intercept, set x to 0
5x - 3y = 30
5(0) - 3y = 30
0 - 3y = 30
-3y = 30
divide both sides by -3 to get y by itself
y = -10
the y intercept is (0,-10)
