Answer:

Explanation:

A quick way of finding the x- and y-intercepts of the correct graph is to set x equal to 0 and find y (y-intercept) and then set y = 0 and find x (x-intercept).

If x = 0, y = -3, which is the point (0, -3).

If y = 0, x = 5, which is the point (5, 0).

Plotting these two points, we draw a line through them. The resulting graph has a positive slope m = 5/3 and y-intercept b = (-3, 0).
