X-intercept: Set y=0 solve for x.
3x%2B16=2%283x%29%2B12
3x%2B16=6x%2B12
-3x=-4
x=4%2F3
(4%2F3,0)

Y-intercept: Set x=0 solve for y.
-7y%2B16=2%28-5y%29%2B12
-7y%2B16=-10y%2B12
3y=-4
y=-4%2F3
(0,-4%2F3)

3x-7y+16 = 2(3x-5y) +12
3x-7y+16 = 6x - 10y +12
3x - 3y = 4
y = 0 then x = 4/3, x-intercept
x = 0 the y = -4/3, y-intercept
