| Question 250059:  I need to graph this equation using the slope and the y-intercept
 y=8/3x+6
 Can someone help me solve the graph this? Thanks so much

      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website!  When x=0, y=6
 Plot the point (0,6).
 
  .
 .
 .
 Now use the slope and starting at (0,6), when you move 3 units in positive x you move 8 units in positive y.
 x=3, y=6+8=14
 Plot the point (3,14).
 
  .
 .
 .
 Again starting at (0,6), when you move 3 units in negative x you move 8 units in negative y.
 x=-3, y=6-8=-2
 Plot the point (-3,-2).
 
  .
 .
 .
 Now connect the points with a line,
