Find the x and y intercepts and graph the equation plotting the equations. -3x-5y=15\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the x-intercept, put 0 in for y:
\n" ); document.write( "-3x - 5y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "-3x - 5(0) = 15 {put 0 in for y}
\n" ); document.write( "-3x = 15 {multiplied -5 by 0}
\n" ); document.write( "x = -5 {divided both sides by -3}
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept = -5
\n" ); document.write( "which is (-5,0) as coordinates of a point\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the y-intercept, put 0 in for x:
\n" ); document.write( "-3x - 5y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "-3(0) - 5y = 15 {put 0 in for x}
\n" ); document.write( "-5y = 15 {multiplied -3 by 0}
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3 {divided both sides by -5}
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept = -3
\n" ); document.write( "which is (0,-3) as coordinates of a point\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To graph, put a point on (-5,0) and a point on (0,-3) and draw a line through the two points.
