Answer:

Refer to explanation

Explanation:

It is already in the form that is used to find the intercepts the fastest (standard form, Ax+By=15)

I will just find the y-intercept for you. When finding the y-intercept, x is 0. So for the equation, since anything multiplied by 0 is 0, then remove the x value.

2x + y = 15

Finding the y-intercept.

y = 15

The y intercept is 15.
