Algebra.Com's Answer #677987 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm supposed to graph the function y=-3x in 2 ordered pairs. \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "It's a straight line so you need 2 points. \n" ); document.write( "You can use the x & y-intercepts. \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "At the x-int, y = 0. \n" ); document.write( "0 = -3x \n" ); document.write( "x = 0 \n" ); document.write( "--> (0,0) \n" ); document.write( "============= \n" ); document.write( "At the y-int, x = 0. \n" ); document.write( "0 = -3x \n" ); document.write( "x = 0 \n" ); document.write( "--> (0,0) \n" ); document.write( "That's the same point, the Origin. \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "You need a 2nd point. \n" ); document.write( "Pick any value for x. \n" ); document.write( "x = 2 --> y = -6 \n" ); document.write( "--> the point (2,-6) \n" ); document.write( "Plot the 2 points, draw a line thru them. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
