The equation of a straight line is written as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The given equation is expressed as

3x + y = 3

y = 3 - 3x

y = - 3x + 3

Comparing the above equation with the slope intercept equation,

y intercept = 3

The x intercept is the value of x when y = 0

Putting y = 0 in the equation, it becomes

0 = - 3x + 3

3x = 3

x = 3x/3

x = 1

x intercept = 1
