The line AB has equation 3x + 5y = 7, find; a) the gradient of AB b) the x-axis and y-axis intercepts c) sketch the graph

a) Rearrange equation into the form y = mx + c where m is the gradient and c is the y-axis intercept. Gradient AB = -3/5. b) The y-intercept is c which = 7/5. To find x-axis intercept we set y=0 and rearrange the equation to get x = 7/3.
