You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph 3x + 2y = 6
This is the intercept method:
Let x=0 and solve for y. (this is the y intercept.)
3(0)+2y=6
2y=6
2y/2=6/2
y=3
Plot(0,3)
Let y=0 and solve for x. (this is the x intercept.)
3x+2(0)=6
3x=6
3x/3=6/3
x=2
Plot (2,0)
Connect the dots and you have a line that looks like this:
