Start by drawing an x-axis (horizontal line) and y-axis (vertical line) on a piece of graph paper. Label where the 2 lines intersect as (0,0). This is the point where x=0 and y=0.
Next, start plugging in values for x into the equation to find the corresponding y value, and plot the points on the graph.
x=0, y=-2(0)+1=1
x=1, y=-2(1)+1=-1
x=-1, y=-2(-1)+1=3
When enough points are plotted, connect the dots with a ruler - the answer should be a straight line.

-2x plus 3y equals 1
-2x+3y=1 3y=1+2x y=(1+2x)/3 Then proceed to find points by plugging in given or arbitrary values of x.
NM equals 2x + 1, as stated in the question!
The answer to 1 over 2x plus 13 equals 9 is x equals -8.
2x + 6y = 6Subtract 2x from each side:6y = -2x + 6Divide each side by 6:y = -1/3 x + 1The graph is a straight line, with a slope of [ -1/3 ], and intersecting the y-axis at the point [ y = 1 ].
