Graph the equation x−y=6 using the form y=mx+b .(1 point)

1 answer

To graph the equation x-y=6 in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), we need to solve for y.

x - y = 6
-y = -x + 6
y = x - 6

Now, the equation is in slope-intercept form with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of -6.

We can graph the equation by starting at the y-intercept of -6 and using the slope of 1 to find another point on the line. For example, if we plug in x=0, we get y=-6+0=-6, which is another point on the line.

Therefore, the graph of the equation x-y=6 in slope-intercept form is a straight line passing through the points (0, -6) and (1, -5).
