You can put this solution on YOUR website!
•X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. -11/7 = -1.57142857142857.
•Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is -11/-2 = 5.5.
•Slope is -7/-2 = 3.5.
•Equation in slope-intercept form: y=3.5*x+5.5
Now sub. in any x value to solve for y and then draw the graph (x,y)
