Graph the linear equation y=−3x+2 .(1 point)

1 answer

Since the equation is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, the y-intercept is 2 and the slope is -3.

To graph this equation, start by plotting the y-intercept, which is the point (0, 2).

Next, use the slope to plot additional points. Since the slope is -3, this means that for every unit increase in x, y will decrease by 3 units.

So from the y-intercept point (0, 2), move down 3 units and right 1 unit to find another point on the line. Repeat this process to find more points.

Connecting all the points will give you a straight line.

The graph of the linear equation y = -3x + 2 is a straight line that slopes downward from left to right.
