3x - 11 = -1x -75
3x = -1x -75 +11
3x + 1x = -75 + 11
4x = -64
x = -64/4
x = -16

Graph the equation below by plotting the y-intercept and a second point on the line. When you click Done, your line will appear

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line has been given as,

$y=\frac{3}{2}x-5$

By comparing this equation with the y-intercept form of the equation,

y = mx + b

Slope of the line 'm' = $\frac{3}{2}$

and y-intercept 'b' = -5

Table for the points to be plotted on a graph will be,

x y

-4 -11

-2 -6

0 -5

2 -4

4 -3

By plotting y-intercept (0, -5) and any one of the points given in the table we can get the required line.
