1. **State the problem:** Graph the line given by the equation $$9x + 63y = 630$$ using intercepts.
2. **Formula and rules:** To graph a line using intercepts, find where the line crosses the x-axis and y-axis.
- The x-intercept is found by setting $$y=0$$ and solving for $$x$$.
- The y-intercept is found by setting $$x=0$$ and solving for $$y$$.
3. **Find the x-intercept:**
Set $$y=0$$ in the equation:
$$9x + 63(0) = 630$$
$$9x = 630$$
Divide both sides by 9:
$$\cancel{9}x = \frac{630}{\cancel{9}}$$
$$x = 70$$
So, the x-intercept is at $$(70, 0)$$.
4. **Find the y-intercept:**
Set $$x=0$$ in the equation:
$$9(0) + 63y = 630$$
$$63y = 630$$
Divide both sides by 63:
$$\cancel{63}y = \frac{630}{\cancel{63}}$$
$$y = 10$$
So, the y-intercept is at $$(0, 10)$$.
5. **Plot the points:**
Plot the points $$(70, 0)$$ and $$(0, 10)$$ on the graph.
6. **Draw the line:**
Draw a straight line through these two points. This line represents the equation $$9x + 63y = 630$$.
**Final answer:** The line crosses the x-axis at $$(70, 0)$$ and the y-axis at $$(0, 10)$$.
