James L is correct. Don't be misled by the second answerer, who has found a point which is on the line, but that's not the intercepts!!

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and solve for y.
To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and solve for x.
y-intercept: setting x=0 gives -3y-15=0, so -3y=15 => y = -5.
x-intercept: setting y=0 gives 5x-15=0, so 5x=15 => x = 3.

I agree with James L also. That's what I came up with when I worked this problem out.

all your solutions are perfect. once you already know that strains are perpendicular if the manufactured from their slopes is -a million and parallel if their slopes are equivalent. you have used this result on your calculations. stick to the comparable result here. you will get the solutions.
