Problema Solution
Find the x-intercept and the y-intercepts and graph the equation.
-2x + 3y = -15
Answer provided by our tutors
x-intercept is when y = 0:
-2x + 3(0) = -15
-2x = -15
x = 15/2
x = 7.5
x-intercept is (7.5,0)
y-intercept is when x = 0:
-2(0) + 3y = -15
3y = -15
y = -5
so the y-intercept is (0,-5)
