Mark the intercept-points (8/3, 0)(83,0) on the x-axis y = 0 and (0, 2)(0,2) on the y-axis x = 0. The graph is the straight line through these points.

Explanation:

Divide both sides by 8 to get the intercept-form
x/(8/3) + y/2 = 1x83+y2=1.

The intercepts are 8/383 on the x-axis y = 0 and 2 on the y-axis x + 0.
