Question 25560
This is just like y = 2x-3, which is a straight line.  You can make a table of values and graph the points on an xy axis, or you can use the fact that the y intercept is the number term which is -3, and the slope is 2, which means {{{(rise)/(run) = 2/1}}}.  See my lesson plans on graphing straight lines, especially with the slope intercept form of the line.


Graph the point (0,-3) by going down on the y axis 3 units.  Then with your pencil on this point measure UP 2 units, then RIGHT 1 unit, and put a point.  Connect the points with a line, and it should look like this:


{{{graph (400,400, -10,10,-10,10, 2x-3)}}}
