Answer:
3x-2y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
Divide each term by −2 and simplify.
y=-3+
Rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=
Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.
Find the values of m and b using the form y=mx+b
The slope of the line is the value of m, and the y-intercept is the value of b.
Slope:
y-intercept: -3
Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.
Choose 0 to substitute in for x to find the ordered pair.
(0,−3)
Choose 1 to substitute in for x to find the ordered pair.
Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.
slope:
y-intercept:-3
