Question

6x-3y=18 I forgot how to graph :(

Answer 1

so let's solve this firsts for x.
6x−3y=18
Step 1: Add 3y to both sides.
6x−3y+3y=18+3y
6x=3y+18
Step 2: Divide both sides by 6.
6x6=3y+186
x=12y+3
here use this link put your equation there and it will show you how would it lok on the graph

Answer 2

divide by 6 or multiply?

Answer 3

you lost me on step 2

Answer 4

OOH MY BAD;[
yea oka diviede 6x/6=3y+ WAIT LET ME DRAW THIS

Answer 5

THEN x=1/2y+3
HERE THAT LOOKS BETTE

Answer 6

AloneS's approach is OK.

You may find it easier to graph 6x-3y=18 by using the intercept method.

First, let x=0. Then -3y=18 and y= ??? so one point to graph is (0, ? )
Next, let y=0. Then 6x=18. x= ? Then another point to graph is ( ? , 0).

Draw a line thru the 2 points.

Answer 7

Whew thanks mr @mathmale your steps are easier!!! :]

Answer 8

so y=-6 and x=2?

Answer 9

Before accepting these results, check them in the original equation.

Does the point (0, -6) satisfy the equation? Does (2, 0) satisfy it? If so, your points are correct.

Answer 10

how do i find the slope?

Answer 11

@mathmale

Answer 12

x=3 not 2 my bad

Answer 13

Riley, I'm going to assume that you want the slope of the line you were drawing for this problem. Also, I'm assuming that x=3: (3,0) and that the other point is (0,-6). If these are wrong, change them, please.

Steal info from these two points: let x0=3 and y0=0. Let x1=0 and y1=-6.

Then the slope you want is found using this equation:\[\frac{ y1-y0 }{ x1-x0 }=m\]
