Answer:

y-intercept = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

6x-5y=-15

We can rewrite it ib slope-intercept form as follows :

Dividing both sides by 5

[tex]\dfrac{6x}{5}-y=\dfrac{-15}{5}\\\\\dfrac{6x}{5}-y=-3\\\\\dfrac{6x}{5}+3=y[/tex] .....(1)

The general equation of slope-intercept form is:

y = mx +c  ....(2)

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :

m = 6/5

c = 3

Hence, the y intercept of the graph of the equation is 3.
