Question

how do i graph 2x+y=7??

Answer 1

Step 1: Put the equation in Slope Intercept Form.
Step 2: Graph the y-intercept point (the number in the b position) on the y-axis. ...
Step 3: From the point plotted on the y-axis, use the slope to find your second point. ...
Step 4: Draw your line using the two points you plotted (y-intercept (b) first, slope (m) second.

Answer 2

0 = -2X - 7
2X = -7
X = -7/2

Now plot (-7/2, 0)

Then set X to 0 and solve for Y

Y = -2(0) - 7
Y = -7

Now plot (0,-7)

Run a line between those two points and you have your graph.

I chose 0, but you can do this with any number.

Try 1

1 = -2x -7
8 = -2x
8/-2 = x

Answer 3

im still confused. :(

Answer 4

wouldnt it be y=-2x+7? But how would i graph that?

Answer 5

point (0,7)

Answer 6

So from (0,7) i just go down -2 and to the right 1?

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

and i continue doing that then thats my line?

Answer 9

Yes
