Given of the equation .

Since   than .

Find the y-intercept, by comparing the equation with slope-intercept form equation y = mx + b, where m is lope and b is y-intercept.

y-intercept is 2. So, line crosses the y-axis at (0, 2).

Next find the slope.

Slope m = .

Graph the line using  point and slope.

1.      Draw a coordinate plane.

2.      Plot the point (0, 2).

3.   Find the next point using . Start at (0, 2), move down 1.5 units and right 1 unit, then mark a dot and label it.

4.   Draw a line through these points.
