Question

Graph the equation by plotting 3 points
x - y =1

Answer 1

probably easier if you write this as
\[y=x-1\]then just pick any x, substitute to get y
for example
\[x=0\] then \[y = 0-1=-1\] so you get (0,-1) and if \[x=2\] you get
\[y=2-1=1\] so plot (2,1)
and so on

Answer 2

can you please help me with another???

Answer 3

sure name it

Answer 4

ok hold please

Answer 5

are you good at math and linear equations?

Answer 6

name one we can try it

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

ok graph the linear equation, find three points that solve the equation
-x - 3y= -6

Answer 9

ok lets pick an x
i pick 0 so first coordinate is 0
we solve for y
\[0-3y=-6\]
\[-3y=-6\]
\[y=\frac{-6}{-3}=2\] giving a point (0,2)

Answer 10

now you pick a y. (hint, pick y = 0)

Answer 11

so it would be 0,3

Answer 12

?????????

Answer 13

well actually since you picked y = 0 it would be
\[-x-0=-6\]
\[-x=-6\]
\[x=6\] and the point would be (6,0)

Answer 14

btw if i get (0,2) you cannot also get (0,3). the first coordinates have to be different.

Answer 15

so the 2 points are 6,0 0,2 how do i get the 3rd one

Answer 16

?????? help?

Answer 17

pick some other number for x and solve for y. for example if you pick x = 3 you get
\[-3-3y=-6\]
\[-3y=-6+3\]
\[-3y=-3\]
\[y=\frac{-3}{-3}\]
\[y=1\] so you have the third point is (3,1)
