Graph the linear equation 3x-2y=6
Put the equation in the general "y= "form:
3x - 2y = 6
-2y = 6 - 3x
:
We always want a positive y here, mult equation by -1
2y = 3x - 6
:
We want y to have a coefficient of 1, divide eq by 2
y = x - 3
:
Plot at least two points.
Here's three points: Substitute for: x = -2, x = -2 and x = +4, you should have:
X | Y
--------
-2 | -6
+2 | 0
+4 | +3
:
The graph will look like this:

:
Can you do this now?
