You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+-4x%2B2y=6
+2y=4x%2B6
+y=4x%2F2%2B6%2F2
+y=2x%2B3
to find the x-intercept set y=0
+0=2x%2B3
+-3=2x
+-3%2F2=x
the x-intercept is at (-3%2F2,0)

and to find y- intercept, set x=0
+y=2x%2B3
y=2%2A0%2B3
+y=3
the y-intercept is at (0,3)

then plot the two intercepts


now draw a line through:
