The equation is .

The equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + c.

To graph the equation, first graph the

                    (Add 2y to each side)

                                    (Additive inverse property: )

                        (Subtract 3 from each side)

                        (Commutative property: a + b = b + a)

                                    (Additive inverse property: )

                               (Divide each side by 2)

                                    (Cancel common terms)

Make a table; choose some values for x and find the corresponding values for y.

\ x \	\ \	\ Coordinates (x, y) \
\ -3 \	\ \	\ (-3,-3) \
\ -1 \	\   \	\ (-1,-2) \
\ 0 \	\   \	\ (0,-1.5) \
\ 1 \	\   \	\ (1,-1) \
\ 3 \	\ \	\ (3,0) \

\

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

1.     Draw a coordinate plane.

2.     Plot the points.

3.     Draw a line through these points.
