SOLUTION: use the intercepts to graph the equation x+3y=6

Question 280643: use the intercepts to graph the equation
x+3y=6
Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First, get it into slope-intercept form: y = mx+b
x + 3y = 6
3y = -x + 6
y = -1/3x + 2
.
slope = -1/3
y-intercept is where x=0,
y = -1/3(0) + 2
y = 2
.
the point is (0,2)
.
the x-intercept is where y=0
0 = -1/3x + 2
1/3x= 2
x= 6
.
the point is (6,0)
.
