$x-"intercept"=-7$

$y-"intercept"=-7/17$

$-17y-x=7$

For finding $x$ -intercept , put $y=0$ .

$=> -17(0)-x=7$

$=> -x=7$

$=> x=-7$

We got $x$ -intercept $=-7$ .

For finding $y$ -intercept , put $x=0$ .

$=> -17y-(0)=7$

$=> -17y=7$

$=> y=-7/17$

We got $y$ -intercept $=-7/17$ .

What are the intercepts of -17y-x=7-17y-x=7?
