Answer is x = -7

Step by step

2x - 7y = -14

Solve for x by setting y at (0)

2x -7 (0) = -14

2x -0 = -14

2x = -14
Divide both sides by 2 to solve

2/2 x = -14/2

x = -7

To solve for y, set x at 0

2x - 7y = -14

2 (0) -7y = -14

0 -7y = -14

-7y = -14
Divide both sides by -7 to solve

-7/-7y = -14/-7

y = 2
