That expression does not have a "solution" per se. In order to "solve" something you must have some sort of relational operator, i.e. . So you have to tell the whole story of what you were asked to do with the expression before someone can help you. Go back and read the instructions for posting questions here before you re-post.

3(x-5) becomes 3x-15 by factoring the answer out.
-15 is your y-interecept.
3 is your slope (go up 3, and over one on the graph)
