Graph the line y=-3x

Step-by-step explanation: Let's graph the equation y = -3x using its slope and y-intercept. The problem here is that our equation doesn't match up quite so well with the formula y = mx + b

Our slope or <em>m</em> which is represented by the coefficient of the x-term is clearly -3. However, you might be asking what is our y-intercept or <em>b</em>. Well, y = -3x can be thought of as y = -3x + 0. So you can now see that our <em>b</em> or y-intercept equals 0.

To graph the line, we start with the y-intercept. So our first point is a 0 on the y-axis and we call that point A. When the slope is a integer, you can change it to a fraction by putting it over 1. So our slope of -3 can be thought of as -3/1.

From point A, we would go down 3 units and over 1 unit to plot point B. Now we can connect points A and B like I did in the picture and we have our line.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph y = -3x.  Start at the origin (0, 0).  Place a dark dot there.  Now, starting with your pencil point on that dot, move 1 space to the right and from this new point move 3 spaces down.  Place a dark dot at this new point.

Now draw a straight line through both dark dots.  This is the desired graph.

It takes 5 minutes per square foot (400/180=5) and so 5 minutes per square for 720 squares: 720x5=3,600. 3,600 minutes is equivalent to 60 hours so it takes him 60 hours.
