    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the x-intercept of - 3x + 5y = 15, let y = 0 and solve the remaining equation for x: - 3x + 5 (0) = 15

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

    to find the y-intercept of - 3x + 5y = 15, set x = 0 and solve the remaining equation for y: 5y = 15, so that y = 3. The y-intercept is (0, 3).

    x-intercept: (-5,0)

    y-intercept: (0,3)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    y-intercept: when x = 0

    -3 (0) + 5y = 15

    5y = 15

    y = 3

    x-intercept: when y = 0

    -3x + 5 (0) = 15

    -3x = 15

    x = - 5
