Question 49613: HOW DO YOU GRAPH THIS EQUATION Y= -6X-8 ?
Answer by checkley71(8403)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! SEING AS THE Y INTERCEPT IS (0,-8) AND THE SLOPE IS -6 THEN THE X INTERCEPT IS
FOUND BY SETTING Y=0 & SOLVING FOR X THUS 0=-6X-8 OR -6X=8 OR X=-4/3 OR
(-4/3,0) PLOT THESE TWO POINTS (0,-8) & (-4/3,0) AND CONNECT THEM WITH A STRAIGHT LINE. THE SLOPE SHOULD BE -6
