try converting it into slope/intercept form:
y = mx + b
or, even easier, take a graph paper and solve for 2 points:
what is y when x is zero
and what is x when y is zero
That gives you 2 points, on on each axis. Then draw a line extending between the two.

to discover an intercept you're able to alter 0 for between the variables then remedy for the different, then do this back yet use 0 for the 2d variable. in an attempt to discover the x-intercept exchange y=0 into the equation and remedy for x: 2x - 3(0) = 7 x = 3.5 subsequently the line intercepts the x=axis at x = 3.5 (plot the element (3.5,0) For the y-intercept: 2(0) - 3y = 7 y = -7/3 = -2 a million/3 So plot a element on the y=axis at -7/3. Now connect the two factors and you're completed!
