How do you graph this equation using three points:
-x +3y=8...OR 3Y=8+X...OR Y=(8+X)/3
THIS IS A LINEAR EQN. IN X AND Y .HENCE IT REPRESENTS A STRAIGHT LINE. WE NEED ONLY 2 POINTS TO DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE. WE MAY TAKE A THIRD ..JUST TO CHECK ITS ACCURACY AND BE SURE.
GIVE DIFFERENT VALUES TO X AND FIND CORRESPONDING VALUES OF Y FROM THE GIVEN EQUATION,TABULATE ,PLOT AND DRAW GRAPH AS SHOWN BELOW...
X=...........1.............4........10......YOU CAN TAKE ANY VALUES AS YOU LIKE.
Y=(8+X)/3..(8+1)/3=3...(8+4)/3=4..(8+10)/3=6...........
GRAPH WILL LOOK LIKE THIS
