1.
Draw the line or

Then shade the area between x-axis and line to the left starting in the point line.

Equation describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is .

X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. 6/3 = 2.
Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 6/-1 = -6.
Slope is -3/-1 = 3.
Equation in slope-intercept form: y=3*x+-6.

2. this is a line parallel to y-axis; shade everything to the right starting from

this equation defines a vertical line.

3. this is a line parallel to x-axis; shade everything up starting from

This equation defines a horizontal line. There is no X intercept. Y intercept is
