What they are asking is to find three
different points on the line
The points are in the form (x,y)
One at a time
(0,_)

Find the missing values that solve this equation.
y = 3x
(0, ____) (-1,____) (7,____)
--------
The equation tells you the y-value is three times the x-value.
(0,0), (-1,-3),(7,21)

Given y = 3x --->(1)
The point is represented by (x ,y)
So the point (0 , -------)
Put x = 0 in the equation(1), we get
y = 0.
Therefore the missing values, (0, 0)
Now again put x = -1, we get
y = 3(-1) = -3
Therefore the values are (-1 , -3)

Now again put x = 7 in equation(1), we get
y =3(7) = 21
Therfore the value are (7,21)

Hence whenever you are given an equation and the first value "x", just substitute to get the missing value.
(0, 0) (-1, -3) (7, 21)
