Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
first solve this:

to graf it, you will need two points:
if =>

find these two points on the graph, and draw the line
everything for shade; start from the point (x = -2), go to the right, and color dark (or shade it).
I think the following sample will help: from to the right shade the area between the x -axis and the graph from

Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc

Equation describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is .

X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. -2/1 = -2.
Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is -2/3 = -0.666666666666667.
Slope is -1/3 = -0.333333333333333.
Equation in slope-intercept form: y=-0.333333333333333*x+-0.666666666666667.
