Explanation:
"to find the intercepts"to find the intercepts
• " let x = 0, in equation for y-intercept"∙ let x = 0, in equation for y-intercept
• " let y = 0, in equation for x-intercept"∙ let y = 0, in equation for x-intercept
x=0toy=0+7toy=7larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"x=0→y=0+7→y=7← y-intercept
y=0to3x+7=0tox=-7/3larrcolor(red)" x-intercept"y=0→3x+7=0→x=−73← x-intercept
"plot the points " (0,7),(-7/3,0)" and draw a straight line"plot the points (0,7),(−73,0) and draw a straight line
"through them"through them
