Answer:

Explanation:

We have to the graph from x = -4 to x = 2

2y + x + 3 = 0

Rearrange the equation to make y the subject

2y = -x - 3

y = (-1/2)x -3/2

-3/2 is the y intercept

the gradients is -1/2

since the value is negative, the graph will be sloping downwards

Point your pen at y = -3/2 on the y axis (-3/2 is -1.5)

go 1 point down and 2 points to the right, make a point and connect these 2 dots and make a line across the graph.

Do the same with the other equation:

3y - x + 1 = 0

3y = x - 1

y = (1/3)x -1/3

y intercept is -1/3

gradient is 1/3

point your pen at -1/3 on the y axis, go 1 point up and 3 points to the right

and mark this point and connect these 2 points and make a line across the graph.
