Graph 3x + 2y = 6
This is the intercept method.
Let x=0 and solve for y:




Plot (0,3) This is the y-intercept at 3 on the y-axis.
Now let y=0 and solve for x:




Plot (2,0) This is the x-intercept at 2 on the x-axis.
Connect the two points and you should have a line that looks like:

Happy Calculating!!!
