Question 389668: make a solution table for the equation. Then graph the equation
y = 9 - 3x
x | y <-- fill 4 columns, then graph. I will be able to graph it, but please explain me how to solve it. :)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
make a solution table for the equation. Then graph the equation
y+=+9+-+3x...or y+=-3x%2B9

a solution table
if x=0, then y+=-3%2A0%2B9=0%2B9=9

if x=1, then y+=-3%2A1%2B9=-3%2B9=6

if x=2, then y+=-3%2A2%2B9=-6%2B9=3

if x=3, then y+=-3%2A3%2B9=-9%2B9=0
put it in a table
x | y <--
0 | 9
1 | 6
2 | 3
3 | 0
plot these points on coordinate system and draw a graph..you should have x-intersect at (3,0) and y-intersect at (0,9)
