This is the equation of a line. Graph it. There are an infinite number of (x, y) solutions.

x = - 5 y = 6 , x = 10 y = -3 , x = 1 y = 3
x = 0 y = 3

You can do this by substituting numbers for x and then figuring out what y has to be, and vice versa

For Example:
if x = 0, then y = 3
so 3*0 + 5*3 = 15
0+15=15 <- true

1) x = 0 and y = 3
3 (0) + 5(3) = 15
0 + 15 = 15

2) x = 5 and y = 0

Can you use negative numbers, too? Test away!

What Kabes said is basically right. Therefore, 4 solutions would be:

x=0, y=3
x=1, y=2.4
x=2, y=1.8
x=3, y=1.2

3x + 5y = 15
if x= 0,
3(0) + 5y = 15
5y= 15
y= 3
solution: (0,3)
if y= 0
3x + 5(0)=15
3x=15
x=5
solution: (5,0)
