find the interspets [sic] then use the interspets to graph the equation
It's intercepts.
---------
-3x = 6y-2
For the y-int, make x = 0
0 = 6y - 2
y = 1/3
--> (0,1/3)
-----------
For the x-int, make y = 0
Same as above.

Using -3x=6y-2
...
In slope-intercept form
6y = -3x + 2
Divide both sides by 6
y = -3%2F6x + 2%2F6
Simplifies to
y = -1%2F2x + 1%2F3
...
y-intercept is 1%2F3
...
Find x intercept where y = 0
0 = -1%2F2x + 1%2F3
-1%2F3 = -1%2F2x
Multiply both sides by -2, to isolate x
x = 2%2F3
