Answer:

The x intercept  is (-5,0)

The y intercept  is (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x intercept we set y=0 and solve for x

3x+5y = -15

3x+0 = -15

3x = -15

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -15/3

x = -5

The x intercept  is (-5,0)

To find the x intercept we set x=0 and solve for y

3x+5y = -15

0+5y = -15

5y = -15

Divide by 5

5y/5 = -15/5

y = -3

The y intercept  is (0,-3)
