Find the x and y Intercepts -3y=15

$- 3 y = 15$

Step 1

Find the x-intercepts.

Divide each term in $- 3 y = 15$ by $- 3$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 3 y = 15$ by $- 3$ .

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} = \frac{15}{- 3}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} = \frac{15}{- 3}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{15}{- 3}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $15$ by $- 3$ .

$y = - 5$

Since $y = - 5$ is a horizontal line, the x-intercept(s) is equal to the value of $y$ .

x-intercept(s): $None$

Step 2

Since $y = - 5$ is a horizontal line, the y-intercept(s) is equal to the value of $y$ .

y-intercept(s): $- 5$

Step 3

List the intersections.

x-intercept(s): $None$

y-intercept(s): $- 5$
