Answer 7

?? How can you get that?

3x+2y=6

Divide by 6

\(\dfrac{x}{2} + \dfrac{y}{3} = 1\)

Answer 8

I did not get It(((

Answer 9

I asked you if you did the division by 6. You said "yeah". That means you did not do it? Very odd.

Anyway, do you see how the division by 6 works?

3x/6 = x/2

2y/6 = y/3

6/6 = 1

Answer 10

yeah I see

Answer 11

This gives the little-known "Intercept Form".

x/2 suggests an x-intercept of (2,0)
y/3 suggests an y-intercept of (0,3)

Plot those two points, connect the dots, and you are done!
