What is the graph of 3x + 5y = -15?

Solution:

Given equation is:

3x + 5y = -15

We shall convert it in standard slope-intercept form:

y = mx + c

5y = -15 - 3x

Divide by 5 on both sides

y = -3/5 x - 3

Here slope = -3/5 and y-intercept is -3

When y = 0; x = -5 which is x-intercept

When x = 0; y = -3

What is the graph of 3x + 5y = -15?

Summary:

The graph for 3x + 5y = -15 is drawn.
