Question

How do i graph the equation -x + 2y = 2

Answer 1

Greetings!

Explanation:

Firstly, set the x value as 0:

-0 + 2y = 2

2y = 2

y = 1

So when x = 0, y = 1

Now set y to 0:

-x + 2(0) = 2

-x = 2

x = -2

So when y = 0, x = -2

Simply plot the two following points:

(0 , 1) and (-2 , 0)

And don't forget to join these two points up!

Hope this helps!
