You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-x +2y = 7
2y = x + 7
y = x/2 + 7/2 = (1/2)*x + 7/2
.
Recall the slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b
.
m = slope = 1/2
.
b = y-intercept: (0, 7/2)
.
Set y=0 and find the x-intercept.
.
0 = (1/2)*x + 7/2
x = -7
(-7,0)
.
With two points you can draw the line.
