Question

Someone please help show me how to do this? I really need help... I will give a medal and will become a fan~~~
Graph the following equations using the point-slope method or intercepts method. (1 pt) Show the steps of the procedure as outlined in the lesson as you graph the lines. (1 pt) Draw your y-intercept in yellow, your other points in red and your line in blue.
3x - 2y= 18

Answer 1

hint: find the intercepts

to find the y-intercept, find y when x = 0

3x - 2y= 18

if x = 0, what is y?

Answer 2

-2?

Answer 3

nope

if x = 0, what does 3x = ?

Answer 4

0

Answer 5

good

so 3x - 2y = 18

becomes

0 - 2y = 18

so what is y?

Answer 6

umm I don't know

Answer 7

i kind of explained this to you today, haven't i ?

Answer 8

-2y = 18...

divide both sides by 2, what do you get?

Answer 9

@DariusX Yes you did and I tried to do this on my own but I couldn't figure it out so I came here for help

-2/2=-1
18/2=9

Answer 10

okay, i hope someone can explain it to you better than me, good luck

Answer 11

You did a great job but this problem confused me

Answer 12

@Vocaloid are you going to help me? :/

Answer 13

oh whoops sorry

Answer 14

so -y = 9, meaning that y = -9

Answer 15

now we find the x-intercept by setting y = 0 and finding x


3x - 2y = 18

when y = 0, what does x = ?

Answer 16

3?

Answer 17

@Vocaloid

Answer 18

3x = 18

what does x =?

Answer 19

6? @Vocaloid My WiFi is really slow so I didn't see your post until just now sorry
