Question 883908: For the given equation, determine which of the given viewing windows will show both intercepts. y=15-3x
I look at some of your answers on here but am only finding answers to be way out of the range of answers available.

a. [-10, 15, -10, 15]
b. [-10, 10, -10, 20]
c. [-10, 20, -10, 10]
d. [-15, 10, -15, 10]

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Y intercept:
y=15-3%280%29
y=15
(0,15)
X intercept:
0=15-3x
3x=15
x=5
(5,0)
I'm assuming the window is given as [xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax]
From the intercept information above, the window needs to cover:
X-range : 0-5
Y-range : 0-15
a) Yes

b) Yes

c) No, Y-range too small
d) No, Y-range too small
