Question 265128
What are the x and y intercepts for the linear equation 2x + 3y = 15?

remember the formula {{{y=mx+b}}} and {{{x=my+b}}} these are the y and x intersept and slope formulas, m=slope b=intercept.
{{{2x+3y=15}}}
{{{3y=15-2x}}}
{{{3y/3=(15-2x)/3}}}
{{{y=5+(-2/3)x}}}
{{{2x+3y-3y=15-3y}}}
{{{2x/2=(15-3y)/2}}}
{{{x=7.5+(-3/2)y}}}

y-intercept is 5
x-intercept is 7.5
