• A, B, and C are integers
• A cannot be negative
• B must be non-zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

y = -3x + 7

Step 2: Rewrite

Find Standard Form.

1. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 3x on both sides:                                 3x + y = -3x + 7 + 3x
2. [Simplify] Combine like terms:                                                                       3x + y = 7
