Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
To graph linear equations, you need to make a table of values. You choose the x and solve the equation for y. Remember you only need to points to define the line, the third is only a check.
y= -x + 8
x=0
y=-(0)+8
y=8
x=1
y=-(1)+8
y=-7
x=-1
y=-(-1)+8
y=9
So our points are;
(0,8);(1,-7);(-1,9)Hope you understand.
See if you can do the other problem?
