The equation is .

To graph the equation.

First find the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.

                                   (Additive inverse property: a + 0 = a)

Next find the x-intercept.

The co-ordinate point is (0, 3)

The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.

                (Add 3 to each side)

                                  (Commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a)

The co-ordinate point is ( 3, 0)

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

1.     Draw a coordinate plane.

2.     Plot the points.

3.     Draw a line through these points.
