The line equation is .
First find the x-intercept, let y = 0 and solve for x.
(Substitute 0 for y)
(Simplify)
(Divide each side by 1.9)
(Simplify)
The x-intercept is 2. So plot the point x-axis at (2, 0).
To find the y-intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y.
(Substitute 0 for x)
(Simplify)
(Divide each side by negative 1.9)
(Simplify)
The y-intercept is . So plot the point y-axis at (0, ).
Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.
- Draw a coordinate plane.
- Plot the points (2, 0) and (0, )
- Draw a line through these points.
