no it doesn't show me a graph ... i tried making one myself & got confused .

ash2326 · Answer

Ok tell me what did you do? I'll guide you with this!!

anonymous · Answer

first i tried plugging the numbers into the equation then trying to do it on a graph but I'm not very good at it .

ash2326 · Answer

Ok, I'll give you instructions, you plot accordingly. Do you agree?

anonymous · Answer

yes

ash2326 · Answer

The equation of line is 
$$x+3y=9$$
Divide both sides by 9, Actually our aim is to get 1 on the right hand side. SO here we have to divide by 9. Do this and write what do you get

@twilliams785 take your time, I'm here:)

anonymous · Answer

you want me to divid 9 from 3y and 9 to get y by itself ?
