Question

2. What is the x-intercept of the line

5x – 3y = 15? Write your answer as an ordered
pair.

Answer 1

The x-intercept of the line is (3,0)

Explanation:

5x - 3y = 15

5x - 3(0) = 15

5x - 0 = 15

(add 0 on both sides the cancel out -0)

5x = 15

(divide by 5)

x = 3

so the x-intercept is (3,0)
