Use intercepts to graph the linear equation 3x - y = -5. x intercept
y intercept
step by step

x intercept =(-5/3,0)

y intercept = (0,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

FOR THE X INTERCEPT:

-plug 0 in for the y value because the y value is 0 at the x intercept.

     * 3x-0=-5 ---> 3x=-5 > x=-5/3 while y = 0

FOR THE Y INTERCEPT

-do the same thing as the x intercept, but instead of making y 0, make x 0.

     * 3(0) -y=-5 > 0-y=-5 > -y=-5 >y=5 while x=0
