tx/3+y/5=1 can be solved for y so it can be put into a graphing calculator.
Multiply each term by the lowest common multiple of the denominators, 15.
It gives you 5x+3y=15
Then subtract 5x from both sides.
3y=-5x+15
Divide each term by 3.
y=-5/3 x+5
This is slope intercept form.
Crosses y axis at 5 with a slope of -5 over 3.
