The y intercept is the value of y when x = 0.
Similarly, the x intercept is the value of x when y = 0.
To find each of these, we separate the equation as shown in the attached image. After solving for x and y, we find that the y intercept is 11 and the x intercept is 22. (The image will show the process of finding each).
For part e, we substitute 15 in for x. So instead of putting x in the equation, we will put 15 and solve for y. After solving, we see that y will equal 3.5.
However, since we cannot have a "half apple" in the package, we see that it is not possible to have 15 apples in the package.
