Solving for y yields . Because any two points define a straight line, you need to pick two values of x to solve for y -- that will give you two ordered pairs to plot and connect. Choosing x=0 gives y=2, and if x=3, then y=1. There are your two pairs, so just plot them and draw a line between them. The graph is:
