Question

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph.Then plot the intercepts to graph the equation. of y=−13x+3y . PLZ HELP I STILL DONT UNDERSTAND HOW TO GRAPH THIS !!!!!

Answer 1

The y-intercept can be found by setting x to 0, the y-intercept can be found by setting y to 0.

Simplify the equation to 13x/2 = y

The x-intercept is 13x/2 = 0, or 0
The y-intercept is 13*0/2 = y, or 0

The intercepts lie at the origin. The slope can be determined from y=mx+b; in this case, y = 13/2x + 0, therefore, the slope is 13/2. The graph can now be plotted.
