The graph of the equation 2x - 3y = 7 is a line.
a). Find the x- and y-intercepts and graph the line using these point.
----

2x-3y=7
2x%2F7-3y%2F7=1
x%2F%287%2F2%29-y%2F%287%2F3%29=1

x-intercept, 7%2F2;
y-intercept, -7%2F3.

b. If a point on this line has an x-coordinate of 10, what is it’s y-coordinate?
---

-3y=-2x%2B7
y=%282%2F3%29x-7%2F3------------let x be 10, and evaluate y.
