first put the equation in slope intercept form.Do you need me to explain it to you or do you just need the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i already put it into slope-intercept form and i got the last graph as my answer, but it was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok this is the answer: |dw:1344873933645:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one on the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain to me how you got that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure wait..

In order to find the y-intercept, you plug 0 in for x -(0) - 2y = 6 -2y = 6 y = -3 In order to find the x-intercept, you plug 0 in for y -x - 2(0) = 6 -x = 6 x = -6 So, your y-intercept is -3, and your x-intercept is -6 Therefore the coordinates are : (-6,0) (0, -3) that the line will go through. you get it?
