Question 930135: Help me find the way this slope will look on a graph, the slope is y=3(x)+3
I've already drawn my graph one that the x axis goes from 10 to -10 and the y axis goes from 10 to -10 also.
I don't know how I would plot it and how the order pairs will be on a table chart ex. (2,8)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Choose an x value.
Say x=0.
Calculate the y value.
y=3%280%29%2B3
y=3
Plot the point (0,3).
Now the slope measures change in y divided by change in x.
In this case, for each 3 unit move in y, you move one unit in x.
So starting from (0,3).
(0,3)+(1,3)=(1,6)
Plot the point (1,6).
Draw the straight line connecting the two points.
You can also just keep picking x values and generating y values but for a line you really only need two points.

Done.
