my nagios is Nagios® Core™ Versão 3.2.0
im have 3 different services
I want the services make checks at different times
im configure check_interval in each service
I put a different value of each check interval for each service
1st service
check_interval = 3
2nd service
check_interval = 5
3rdt service
check_interval = 7
but it did not work because they keep coming at the same time
******* See Bellow my nagios.conf

If you want certain host / service to check at different intervals, etc you would add those options to the host / service check and that will over ride the settings from the template.
My question to you is are all of your host / service checks running at the same time and you do not want that to happen?
What version of Nagios are you running and can you post your nagios.cfg file?
