First, make it into slope intercept form. You should get y=6/5x+3/5.
Then, to find the y intercept, look at the last number in the equation. It is always the y-intercept as long as the equation is in slope-intercept form. Y-intercept=3/5.
Next, plug in y as zero to get the x-intercept. You should get -1/2.

y-int=(0,3/5)
x-int=(-1/2,0)

The y-intercept is negative 3/5.

The x-intercept is negative 1/2

this is because i plugged in 0 for x, and got the y-intercept and plugged in 0 for y and got the x-intercept
