Hi
Graph by plotting at five points:
x-2y = 6 OR y = (1/2)x - 3
Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b
where 1/2 is the slope and -3 the y-intercept. Pt(0,-3) on the line.
Note m = 1/2: as y increases/decreases by 1, x increases/decreases by 2
Pt(0,-3)the y-intercept
Pt(2,-2),Pt(4,-1),Pt(-2,-4),Pt(-4,-5) on the line the slope tells us:
