Answer:

(0, -3), (-1, 1)

Explanation:

The equation can be simplified to a form more helpful for graphing.

Subtract 7:

24x +18 = -6y

We note that all of the coefficients are multiples of 6, so we can divide by -6:

y = -4x -3

This is slope-intercept form, so it tells you that the y-intercept is -3, which means one point on the graph is (0, -3).

The slope is -4, so an x-value in the negative direction will give a more positive y-value. We can choose x=-1 and find y:

y = -4(-1) -3 = 4 -3 = 1

Then another point on the graph is (-1, 1).

Two points on the graph are (0, -3) and (-1, 1).
