8x%2B9y=11 Start with the given equation. 9y=11-8x Subtract 8x from both sides. 9y=-8x%2B11 Rearrange the terms. y=%28-8x%2B11%29%2F%289%29 Divide both sides by 9 to isolate y. y=%28%28-8%29%2F%289%29%29x%2B%2811%29%2F%289%29 Break up the fraction. y=-%288%2F9%29x%2B11%2F9 Reduce. In order to graph the equation y=-%288%2F9%29x%2B11%2F9, we only need two points to create a straight line --------------------------------Let's find the first point-------------------------------- y=-%288%2F9%29x%2B11%2F9 Start with the given equation y=-%288%2F9%29%287%29%2B11%2F9 Plug in x=7 y=-56%2F9%2B11%2F9 Multiply -8%2F9 and 7 to get -56%2F9 y=-45%2F9 Add y=-5 Reduce
