    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)
