What is the graph of 6x+3y=18?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

6x+3y=18 6*0+3y=18 ... plug in x = 0 0 + 3y = 18 3y = 18 y = 18/3 y = 6 so when x = 0, the value of y is y = 6 this means that the point (0,6) is on the line

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now plug in y = 0 6x+3y=18 6x+3*0=18 6x+0=18 6x=18 x=18/6 x=3 which means that the point (3,0) is also on the line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so which graph

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you tell me which graph has both points (0,6) and (3,0) on the line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the third one ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

correct, the third graph is the answer

thanks
