\

The equation is \"\" \

The equation is in slope-intercept form.

\

First find the y-intercept.

\

The y-intercept is the value of y, when \"\".

\

\"\"                               (Substitute \"\")

\

\"\"                                        (Multiplication property of zero: \"\") \ \

\

The co-ordinate point is \"\".\"\"

\

Next find the x-intercept.

\

The x-intercept is the value of x, when \"\".

\

\"\"                                  (Substitute \"\")

\

\"\"                          (Divide each side by negative two)

\

\"\"                                  (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                                       (Divide: \"\")

\

The co-ordinate point is \"\".\"\" \ \ Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\

1.      Draw a coordinate plane.

\

2.      Plot the points.

\

3.      Draw a line through these points.
