Answer:

Explanation:

- 2x + 3y = -1​ is the equation of a line

Pick any values for x then find y or for y and then find x;

if you have two points you can draw a line trough those two points.

For example,

pick x= -1 then find y

- 2*(-1) + 3y = -1​

2+ 3y = -1

3y = -1-2

y= -3/3

y= -1

First point has the coordinates (-1, -1)

pick y = 1 then find x

- 2x + 3*1 = -1​

-2x +3 = -1

-2x = -1-3

-2x = -4

x= -4/-2

x= 2

Second point has the coordinate (2, 1)

Draw a line trough the points (-1, -1) and (2,1) to sketch the graph of -2x+3y = -1
