Question 629098
Plot the following graph:

7x - 8y = 3

Subtract 7x from each side of the equation

7x - 8y - 7x = 3 - 7x

Combine like terms:

7x - 7x = 0

Therefore:

-8y = 3 - 7x or

-8y = -7x + 3

Divide each item by -1

-8y/-1 = -7x/-1 + 3/-1

We now have:

8y = 7x - 3


From the above we get the following coordinates:

(2,11)

(1,4)

(0,-3)

(-1,-10)


The Slope (m) formula: (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

= (-3 - 4)/(0 - 1)

= -3 - 4 = -7

= 0 - 1 = -1

-7/-1 = 7


The Slope (m) = 7

y-intercept = -3

y = mx + b

y = 7x - 3
