Question

What are the intercepts of the line 3x – 15y = 60?   A. x-intercept: –4; y-intercept: 20   B. x-intercept: –3; y-intercept: 15   C. x-intercept: 20; y-intercept: –4   D. x-intercept: 5; y-intercept: 20

Answer 1

X intercept is when y = 0
3x -15(0) = 60
3x = 60
x = 20

y intercept is when x=0
3(0) -15y = 60
-15y = 60
y = -4

Answer is C
