Question 505013: how do you graph y= 3x+2

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = 3x + 2
.
It is linear, so you need to points to draw the straight line.
.
x = 0 means y = 2, so that point is (0,2)
x = -2/3 means y =0, so that defines the point (-2/3,0)
.
But you can use any two convenient values of 'x' and compute the associated value of 'y'.
