1) To graph that equation, let's make a table for that

But let's rewrite that equation into a simpler form, the slope-intercept

4x - 6y = - 24

-6y=-24 -4x Divide both sides by -6

y= 4 -2/3x

Let's find the x-intercept

4-2/3x =0

-2/3x=-4

2/3x=4 Multiply by 3

2x=12

x=6

To find y, plug the value of x into the equation

x | y

1 3.33 y=4-2/3(1) y =10/3 And so on

2 2.66

3 2

4 1.33

5 0.66

6 0

2) Now let's plot
