Hi,
Plotting equation for a line on a coordinate grid:
x + y/2 = 1 'Solving for y' allows for determining the coordinate pairs
2x + y = 2 |Multiplying each term by 2
y = -2x + 2
Finding ordered pairs for :
3x - 1 = y
x = 0 -2*0 +2 = y y = 2 Pt( 0,2) on the line
x = 1 -2*1 + 2 = y y = 0 Pt( 1,0) on the line
x = -1 -2*-1 +2 = y y = 4 Pt(-1,4) on the line
Plotting these points and connecting them with a straight line:
Note: Points represented by Pt(x,y) that is the x value is listed first
