Question

2. Graph 4x + y = 6x - 1 .
Show your work and explain the method used to determine the graph.

Graphs the equation using the correct slope and y-intercept.

Correctly explains the method used to graph the equation.

Answer 1

4x + y = 6x - 1

 

y = 2*x - 1          Standard Equation of a Line: y = m*x  + b        

                           where: m = slope of line

                                      b = y-intercept

 

Therefore, m = 2   (slope)

                b = -1   (y-intercept)

 

You just need two sets of points, (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), then draw a line through them on graph

 

For example,

start with x1 = 0  

              y1 = 2*(0) - 1 = -1

              

              plot x1 = 0 and y1 = -1 on graph

 

               then x2 = 4

                y2 = 2*(4) - 1 = 7    

  

               plot x2 = 4 and y2 = 7 on graph

 

               and draw a straight line through the 2 points

 

You can use any numbers for x1 and x2 then plug into line equation and find y1 and y2  and plot them
