Find the x- and y-intercepts of x + 3y + 2 = 0 and use these intercepts to graph the equation.
-------------
To find the x intercept, set y=0.
To find the y intercept, set x=0.
----------
x+3y = -2
At x = 0: 3y=-2
y = -2/3 (y axis intercept (0,-2/3)
-------------------
At y = 0: x = -2 (-2,0) is the y axis crossing
