Question

What is the graph of 3x + 5y = –15?

Answer 1

Graph is option A

Explanation:

3x + 5y = –15

To graph the equation , we need to get y alone

`3x + 5y = –15`

Subtract 3x on both sides

`5y = -3x–15`

Divide whole equation by 5

`y=-(3x)/(5) -3`

To graph this equation , we need to make a table

Plug in some number for x and find out y

x
`y=-(3x)/(5) -3`

0 -3

-5 0

Two points on the graph is (-5,0) and (0,-3)

Graph is option A
