Use the intercepts to graph the equation.
7x - 3y = 21

x-intercept (3,0)

y-intercept (0,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is when y is 0.

We are going to replace y with 0 giving us:

7x-3(0)=21

7x       =21

Divide both sides by 7:

x        =21/7=3

So the x-intercept is (3,0). So go on the x-axis and count 3 to the right of the origin. Put a dot there.

The y-intercept is when x is 0.

We are going to replace x with 0 giving us:

7(0)-3y=21

     -3y=21

Divide both sides by -3:

       y=21/-3=-7

So the y-intercept is (0,-7).  So go on the y-axis and count down 7 units from the origin. Put a dot there.

Connect your dots with a straightedge and you are done.  Extend it pass the points and both directions.
