The line equation is .

First find the x-intercept, let y = 0 and solve for x.

                               (Substitute 0 for y)

              (Add  to each side)

                                     (Simplify)

                    (Multiply each side by )

                                          (Cancel common terms)

                                         (Divide: )

The x-intercept is 1.5.So plot the point x-axis at (1.5, 0)

To find the y-intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y.

                             (Substitute 0 for x)

                                       (Simplify)

                                      (Divide: )

The y-intercept is .So plot the point y-axis at (0, )

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\
• Draw a coordinate plane.
\
• Plot the points (1.5, 0) and (0, )
\
• Draw a line through these points.
