_---x + 2
3
y=-x/3+2
let x=0 & solve for y
y=2 or (0,2)
let y=0 & solve for x
0=-x/3+2
x/3=2
x=382
x=6 or (6,0) (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 8, y from -10 to 10, -x/3 +2).
To graph :
1. Draw a table with two columns.
2. Label first column "x", the second "y".
3. Each row will represent a point in the cartesian plane.
4. Assign a value to "x" and solve for "y".
5. Do it again with a different "x" value.
6. Two point are sufficient to graph a line.
7. PLot both points and draw a line connecting both points and you got your graph!
Table:
When , <--- point (3,1)
When , <--- point (6,0)
Below is how the graph would look like. Notice points (3,1) and (6,0) are represented in the graph.
