Miss Jean likes to go to Cafe Zing for a latte and a scone. Lattes cost $6 each and scones are $5. She gets a gift card for $30. The equation for the number of lattes, x, and the number of scones, y, that Miss Jean can order with her gift card is 6x + 5y =30. Find and interpret the x and y intercepts.

x intercept: If she does not buy any scones she can buy 5 lattes. 

y intercept: If she does not buy any lattes, she can buy 6 scones with her gift card.
