Question 1049207: find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of the linear equation.
y = 3x -6
please explain and show a graph in simple terms
Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
recall, the slope-intercept form of linear equation:
where represents a slope and represents y-intercept
now, compare your equation to and you can see that:
the slope is and the y-intercept is
the y-intercept is a point where a line crosses y-axis and , and the point is:
(,)
since your equation is linear means the graph is a line, so only what we need is one more point to graph it
best way is to find x-intercept
so, set and solve for
the point is: (,)
plot these points and draw a line through
