o find the intercepts, that is where the line crosses the x and y axes

• let x = 0, in the equation for the y-intercept

• let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept

x = 0

⇒ - 5 = 4y ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = - ← y- intercept

y = 0

7x - 5 = - 6x ( add 6x to both sides )

13x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )

13x = 5 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = ← x- intercept
