Step 1: Pick a number for . It can be anything you like, but small integers generally make the arithmetic easier and make finding your point on your coordinate system more precise.
Step 2: Substitute this value into the equation in place of and do the arithmetic to find the value of
Step 3: Create an ordered pair of the form where the coordinate is the value you selected in step 1 and the coordinate is the value you calculated in step 2.
Step 4: Plot this point on your coordinate system.
Step 5: Repeat steps 1 through 4 using a different value for
Step 6: Now that you have two points plotted, draw a straight line connecting the two points and extending all the way across your coordinate system.
