Question 1162988: Summarize a strategy that can be used to graph each of the following
A.) y=Mx+b

B.) Ax+by+C=0

C.) y-y1=m (x-x1)
D.) py+1=Qx
Thanks so much I’d very much appreciate the help I’m sorry it’s more then one but I’m struggling with these

-----------------------------------
A.) y=Mx+b
B.) Ax+by+C=0
C.) y-y1=m (x-x1)
D.) py+1=Qx
-------------------------------------

A:
Equation is in slope-intercept form. Use (0,b) and the slope M.

B:
You could find both intercepts. Let set x to 0 and find y. Set y to 0 and find x. Plot each axis intercept and draw the line.

C:
Equation is in point-slope form. Line includes (x1, y1). Apply slope m to find other points and draw line through.

D:
Solve for y in terms of x, putting into slope-intercept form...
