Answer:

Explanation:

Looking at y=-%282%2F3%29x%2B3 we can see that the equation is in slope-intercept form y=mx%2Bb where the slope is m=-2%2F3 and the y-intercept is b=3

Since b=3 this tells us that the y-intercept is .Remember the y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects with the y-axis

So we have one point

Now since the slope is comprised of the "rise" over the "run" this means

slope=rise%2Frun

Also, because the slope is -2%2F3, this means:

rise%2Frun=-2%2F3

which shows us that the rise is -2 and the run is 3. This means that to go from point to point, we can go down 2 and over 3

So starting at , go down 2 units

and to the right 3 units to get to the next point

Now draw a line through these points to graph y=-%282%2F3%29x%2B3

So this is the graph of y=-%282%2F3%29x%2B3 through the points and
