154 - 123 = 60

I need to know my intercept.

Best way to find the intercept of 15x-12y=60, or of any line for that matter, is to put it into slope intercept form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept to do this we will need some equation manipulation to get it = to y 15x-12y=60 (15x-12y)+12y=(60)+12y 15x=60+12y (15x)-60=(60+12y)-60 15x-60=12y (15x-60)/12=(12y)/12 (5/4)x-5=y y=(5/4)x-5 so m = 5/4 and b = -5 Final answer: The y-intercept is at (0,-5) Hope I could help :)

The y-intercept of a line is found by setting x = 0 in the equation y = m x + b . For example, using an equation like y = 15 x − 12 , the y-intercept is ( 0 , − 12 ) . The x-intercept can be found by setting y = 0 and solving for x .
