i.    `y=3/5x+3`

ii.  

`text{Test}\ (0,0):`

`5(0)-3(0)>15\ \ =>\ \ 0<15\ \ text{(incorrect)}`

Show Worked Solution
i.     `5y-3x` `=15`
  `5y` `=3x+15`
  `y` `=3/5x+3`

 

ii.   `xtext{-intercept occurs when}\ y=0:`

`5(0)-3x=15\ \ =>\ \ x=-5`

`ytext{-intercept at}\ \ y=3`

`text{Test}\ (0,0):`

`5(0)-3(0)>15\ \ =>\ \ 0>15\ \ text{(Incorrect – not in shaded area.)}`
