texaschic101 · Answer

well....find the x and y intercepts of the two lines. plot them, then connect the points.
Do you know how to find the intercepts of the lines ?

anonymous · Answer

yes i so but it also says to label all intercepts, do i just put the plot points??

texaschic101 · Answer

plot your points, then label it on the graph, ...I guess

texaschic101 · Answer

with 2 lines, you will have 4 intercepts

I suppose if you wanted to check yourself, you could find the slope and that might help
