Simplify this equation to 

3y = -5x -12 

y = -5/3 x - 4        X intercept occurs when y = 0 

                                    Then x = -12/5 

                               Y intercept occurs when x = 0 

                                      Then y = -4     

 

  • Find distance between  (-12/5 , 0 )     And   (0, -4)       Using distance formula     D = 4.66 units
