Graph the equation below by plotting the y-intercept and a second point on the line. (Zoom in if blurry)

The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Slope-Intercept form of the equation of the line is:

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept

Given the following equation in Slope-Intercept form:

You can identify that:

By definition, the line intersects the y-axis when , therefore, in this case, the line intersects the y-axis at this point:

In order to get another, give a value to the variable "x" and evaluate to get the coorresponding value of "y".

If you substitute into the equation, you get:

Then, the line also passes trough this point:

Finally, you can plot the points and graph the equation (See the picture attached)

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
