Question

PLEASE HELP!!!Graph the linear equation. find three points that solve the equation, then plot them on the graph.
3x+2y=11

Answer 1

you can isolate the variable y and can use any value for x to get three coordinate points and then graph it.

Answer 2

i dont know how to do that

Answer 3

so isolating for y gives u y = (-3x+11)/2

Answer 4

the points you can use to solve for the graph is when x and y = 0, so plug in 0 for x and solve for y then plug in 0 for y and solve for x that will give you two coorditane points

Answer 5

the third point can be any other number

Answer 6

do u get it?

Answer 7

no i dont

Answer 8

plug in 0 for y u get (11/3); so the coordinate is ((11/3),0)
plug in 0 for x u get (11/2); so the coordinate is (0,11/2)

And also looking at the equation above you can see that the slope of the line negative. you now have all the information needed to draw this graph

Answer 9

ok thanks
