Write each of the following in the intercept form then list x and y intercepts

slope 3/7 through (14,3)

For this case the general formula for a line is given by:

y= mx +b

m= 3/7

x= 14 and y= 3

replacing we got:

3= 3/7 * 14 +b

3= 6+b

b= 3-6 =-3

Then the line is given by:

y= 3/7 x -3

the y intercept is given by:

(x=0, y= -3)

and the x intercept:

0= 3/7 x -3

x= 7

(x=7, y=0)
