You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph:
y=%28-2%2F3%29x%2B4 by graphing 3 points.
:
You get to pick any three points, so graph x=-3,0,3. I picked the 3's because they are divisible by three and we won't have to graph fractions.
:
for x=-3, substitute -3 in for x and solve for y.
y=%28-2%2F3%29%28-3%29%2B4
y=6%2F3%2B4
y=2%2B4
y=6
Plot (-3,6)
:
For x=0
y=%28-2%2F3%29%280%29%2B4
y=0%2B4
y=4
Plot (0,4)
:
For x=3
y=%28-2%2F3%29%283%29%2B4
y=-6%2F3%2B4
y=-2%2B4
y=2
Plot (3,2)
:
Connect the points and you should have a line that looks like:
graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C%28-2%2F3%29x%2B4%29
Happy Calculating!!!
