Step 1: Pick a value for x.  Any value will do, but in this case, I would
choose 3.  Insert that value into the equation and calculate y.




Now we have a value for x and a corresponding value for y making an ordered
pair that can be plotted on the coordinate plane.  First point (3,3).  Plot
the point.


Now choose a second value for x.  How about 6.


, and we have our second point, (6,2).
Plot the point.


Construct a line through your two points and you are done.
