Question 688436: I need to graph this equation using the x- and y-intercepts x/9-y/2=1
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve for y
==> multiply the entire equation by 18 (LCM of 9 and 2)
2x - 9y = 18
9y = 2x - 18 ==> divide the entire equation by 9
y =
...
The y intercept is -2
plot (0, -2)
...
The x intercept is where y = 0, so
0 =
2 =

x = 9
plot (9, 0)
...
Draw a line through the intercepts
