What are the x and y-intercepts of 3x-5y=15?

x- intercept = 5, y- intercept = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y- intercept, let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

3(0) - 5y = 15

- 5y = 15 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

y = - 3 ← y- intercept ⇒ (0, - 3 )

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

3x - 5(0) = 15

3x = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 5 ← x- intercept ⇒ (5, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 in 3x-5y=15 and solve for x:

3x - 0 = 15, so x = 5 and the x-intercept is (5, 0).

To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 in 3x-5y=15 and solve for y:

0 - 5y = 15, so that y = -3.  The y-intercept is (0, -3).

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
