Question 1176037: Directions: Given the following linear function below. Identify or give at
least three points in each linear function. Then, use the three points to draw and characterize the graph of the function.
1. 𝒚 = 𝟓𝒙 − 8
2. 𝒚 = −𝟐𝒙 + 𝟑
3. 𝟐𝒙 − 𝒚 = 𝟔
4. 𝟑𝒙 + 𝟒𝒚 = 𝟏2
5. 𝟒𝒙 = 𝒚 + 5
(needed to show graph in the solution) :((

1. Pick an equation.

2. Pick a value for . Use small integers, it makes the arithmetic easier.

3. Substitute your chosen value for into the chosen equation.

4. Solve for .

5. Take the value for from step 2 and the value of from step 4 and create an ordered pair

6. Plot the point

7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 for two different values for .

8. Draw a straight line through the three points. Describe the graph: positive or negative slope, -intercept, -intercept

Repeat the whole process for each of the other equations.
