Answer 1

Sure thing. First you want to identify the slope and the vertical-intercept.

Answer 2

Let's start with the first one:
y=-2x+1

Answer 3

First you should find the solutions for x and y.
Then you should plot a minimum of two points(for that you have to find two pairs of solutions).
The line joining these two points will be the graph.

Answer 4

do you start at -2 and go up one over one? for the first one?

Answer 5

oops... you're backwards there.

Answer 6

You start at +1 on the y-axis, then you move down two and right 1.

Answer 7

so for the second one do i start at -5?

Answer 8

It should look something like this:

Answer 9

Yes, for the second one, you do start at -5 on the y-axis

Answer 10

and i go up one over one right? lol

Answer 11

Yes (as long as by 'over' you mean 'right'). ;)

Answer 12

yeah. lol so how do i tell if they have one solution, no solution or many solutions?

Answer 13

Well, the one solution, no solutions, or infinitely many solutions has to do with systems of equations. So far, we've been talking about graphing a single equation.

Answer 14

Systems involve two linear equations on the same coordinate system.

Answer 15

From graphing, we could have 1 of 3 things happen. I'll draw the situations for ya...

Answer 16

this is how my graph looks like lol does it look right?
