Question

Choose the correct procedure used to graph the equation 3x + 9y = -18 using the intercepts method. Solve the equation for y to get a y-intercept of (0, -2) and a slope of -1/3. Plot the y-intercept, count the slope to get another point and draw the line that passes through the two points. Choose two different values; plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y-values. Plot the two points and draw the line that passes through the two points. Let x equal zero and solve for y to find a y-intercept of (0, -2). Let y equal zero and solve for x to find an x-intercept of (-6, 0).

Answer 1

I think the first thing you need to do is to solve the first equation for y so that you get it in the form y= mx+b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept

Answer 2

i dont kn ow the answer

Answer 3

Is it slope-intercept method or intercept method?
Slope intercept method is as @tomo says
Intercept method is x/a + y/b=1 where a and b are the respective intercepts that the line makes with x and y axis respectively. So, The last option is the best...:) Let x equals zero once to find the pt of intersection with the y axis (0,b)
and then put y=0 to find the pt of intersection with the x axis (a,0).
This is the best method for plotting any st line equation (Time saver)
