graph –4x + 3y = 6

Question

graph –4x + 3y = 6

hero · Answer

To graph find the x and y intercepts. First set y = 0, and solve for x. 
Then set x = 0 and solve for y. The results will give you two points that you can plot and draw a line through

hero · Answer

So basically the points will be (x,0) and then (0,y)

hero · Answer

Once you find x and y intercepts, substitute those values into the coordinates I gave you above. Then you will be able to graph

Is this for multivariable calc or just algebra?

anonymous · Answer

algebra

anonymous · Answer

oh okay.  Yeah, then determine what y will be when x is zero (plug x=0 into the equation), and then find what x will be when y is zero (plug y=0 into the equation).

anonymous · Answer

and now you've got your line

anonymous · Answer

Are you okay now or still confused?

anonymous · Answer

thank you

anonymous · Answer

Another way to go about plotting a line is first plug x=0 into the equation, and then plug in ANY other x-value.  Can be positive, negative, or irrational (decimal number).  Since x is independent and continuous, this will always work.
