Question

On a graph how do you graph 3x-6yequals -3

Answer 1

First i'd recommend rearranging the equation into slope-intercept form so it's easier to conceptualize cuz you can see the slope and y-intercept of its graph. Then make a table and plug a range of x's into the equation to get a y coordinate. When you have all of the ordered pairs, just plot them and draw a line through them and you're done.

3x-6y=-3                                        x | y
-6y=-3-3                                        -4  -1.5
y=(1/2)x+(1/2)                               -3  -1
       ^          ^                                 -2  -.5
    slope    y-intercept                    -1   0
                                                      0   .5
                                                      1    1
                                                      2    1.5
                                                      3     2
