Question 110114: graph by first solving for y
x-3y=9

x-9=3y divide both sides by 3
x-3=y or would it be y=1/3x
Am I on the right track and how do you graph a fraction?

Question 110111: solve and graph the solution set 3(x-4)>7x-9

3x-12>7x-9 then add 12 to both sides
3x > 7x -3 then subtract -7x from both sides
-4x > -3

x> 3/4
Double checking my work because I dont know if I did this right and if so how do you graph a fraction.
