Question 61216: Could ssomeone please explain how to work this problem?
Find the slope and y intercept by writing the equation in slope intercept form then graph the equation. 3x+y=-2 Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3X+Y=-2
Y=-3X-2 THIS IS A LINE WITH A SLOPE OF -3 & A Y INTERCEPT OF (0,-2)
SETTING Y=0 WE CAN THEN FIND THE X INTERCEPT FOR A SECOND POINT TO PLOT THE LINE
0=-3X-2
-3X=2
X=2/-3
X=-2/3 OR (-2/3,0) IS A SECOND POINT ON THE LINE.
