Question

How would I put this equation on a graph?
Equation~y = -x + 3

anonymous · Answer

Well first you would have to bring y up to 3 because that's the y intercept

anonymous · Answer

It's also a negative x so the line goes downward from left to right

Medals?

@atreyu6s3x6  can you help me and see if this graph is right?

anonymous · Answer

close but not quite the b is the y-intercept so it would go up 3 on the y-axis and the slope is -1/1 give it a shot :) if not ill graph it

anonymous · Answer

Ah of course sorry didn't see the negative sign

abbycross167 · Answer

ok I think I got it, but would you mind graphing it so I can see if I did it right?

anonymous · Answer

sure give me a sec :) @abbycross167

anonymous · Answer

So instead:
y = -x + 3

Y intercept: when x = 0, y = -0 + 3 = 3
X intercept: when y = 0, 0 = -x + 3 = 3

So we have the two points (0,3) and (3,0)
