===========================
There is no unique solution to the equation.
---
If you mean how to graph it:
It's a straight line so you need 2 points.
You can use the 2 intercepts.
At the y-intercept x = 0 --> y = 6 --> point (0,6)
At the x-intercept y = 0 --> x = -3 --> point (-3,0)
----------
Plot the 2 points, draw a line thru them.

The plot is here

graph%28+330%2C+330%2C+-10.5%2C+10.5%2C+-10.5%2C+10.5%2C%0D%0A++++++++++2x+%2B+6%0D%0A%29
Plot y = 2x + 6.
