Hi

 



Find the x- and y- intercepts and graph the equation plotting the intercepts

3x-6y=-2  OR y = (3/6)x + 2/6  OR y = (1/2)x + 1/3  y-intercept is Pt(0,1/3)

 y = (1/2)x + 1/3  | y =0, then x = -2/3  x-intercept is Pt(-2/3,0)

Note m = 1/2: as y increases/decreases by 1, x increases/decreases by 2
