how do i graph x=2 and 3x-y=8
--------
They're straight lines, so you need 2 points.
-----
x = 2
Pick 2 values for y
y = 0, x = 2 --> (2,0)
y = 10, x = 2 --> (2,10)
Draw a line thru them
---------------
3x-y=8
y = 3x - 8
Pick 2 values for x and find y, as above.
Plot the 2 points.
Draw a line thru them.
