Answer 1

(0,-3)

Answer 2

Thanks

Answer 3

that's it?? ... you don't need to know how it goes ??!!

Answer 4

Ummm , No thats fine

Answer 5

Standard Equation in slope intercept form
\[\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1\]
a= x intercept
b= y intercept
We have
\[3x-5y=15\]
divide both sides by 15
we get
\[\frac{x}{5}-\frac{y}{3}=1\]
or
\[\frac{x}{5}+\frac{y}{-3}=1\]
so y intercept is -3
