Write the following lines in the form y=mx+c and draw the line on a coordinate plane

Question

Write the following lines in the form y=mx+c and draw the line on a coordinate plane

1) x+2y=0

2) -3x+y=12

Answer 1

1) x + 2y = 0

2y = -x + 0

y = (-1/2)x + 0

The y-intercept is zero, and the slope is -1/2.

2) -3x + y = 12

y = 3x + 12

The y-intercept is 12, and the slope is 3.

Hopefully, you know how to graph lines given the slope and y-intercept.
