Hi
Find the x- and y-intercepts of the line, and find the area and the perimeter of the triangle formed by the line and the axes.
 A) 3x + 5y = 15 
I have gotten both intercepts, which are, x-intercept(5,0) y-intercept (0,3).
Plot points, connect with line.  {{{A = (1/2)5*3 = 15/2}}} units^2
{{{P = 5 + 3 + sqrt(5^2 + 3^2)}}}
{{{drawing(300,300,   -6, 6, -6, 6,  grid(1),
circle(5,0,0.3),
circle(0, 3,0.3),
line(5,0,0,3),
