straight line of y=3x-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What about it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you trying to draw a graph of it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK. What do you know about drawing graphs?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a lot when it comes to straight line but if am directly told where is the x and what he y is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you give me an example of that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1331327433899:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK, good. Do you know the equation of that line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its a straight line right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure. But lots of different straight line graphs are possible to draw.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let's take an easy example: suppose you had to draw a graph where the y was always the same as x, so x=0 and y=0, x=2 and y=2, x=5 and y=5. What would that graph look like?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can use these axes if you want: |dw:1331327657523:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay so igthef equation had |dw:1331327865377:dw|
