Answer:

x = 1 ⇔ y = -2.4

x = 2 ⇔ y = -1.8

x = 3 ⇔ y = -1.2

x = 4 ⇔ y = -0.6

Explanation:


3x-5y=15

→ Rearrange to make y the subject


-5y=-3x+15

→ Multiply everything by -1


5y=3x-15

→ Divide everything by 5


y=0.6x-3

⇒ Substitute x = 1, 2, 3 and 4


y=0.6x-3\\ y=(0.6*1)-3\\ y=0.6-3\\ y=-2.4\\(1,-2.4)


y=0.6x-3\\ y=(0.6*2)-3\\ y=1.2-3\\ y=-1.8\\(2,-1.8)


y=0.6x-3\\ y=(0.6*3)-3\\ y=1.8-3\\ y=-1.2\\(3,-1.2)


y=0.6x-3\\ y=(0.6*4)-3\\ y=2.4-3\\ y=-0.6\\(4,-0.6)
