Step 1: Solve for y so that your equation is in the form of y=mx+b
Step 2: your m value is your y- intercept. So put the point (0,m) on the graph
Step 3: your b value is your slope of the equation. If your b value is already a fraction then the numerator is your "rise" and the denominator is your "run." If your b value is not a fraction then just make it into one by putting a fraction bar and a 1 underneath it. Now starting from the first point you put, go up or down the amount of your "rise" and mark the point. Positive is up and negative is down. For example if your "rise" is -3 then go down three points from your y intercept. Now from your second point, go left or right depending on your "run" and make a point. Positive is right and negative is left. For example, if my "run" is 5 then I will move 5 right and make a point.
Step 4: Connect your first and third point with a straight line and extend the line. Put arrow heads on both ends of your line and that is your equation of a line on a graph.

How do you graph the equation y plus 2 equals -X minus 4?
6
Which way does a graph shift if you subtract that number from each x in the equation?
it shifts to the rightt!
How do you graph the linear equation xy 4?
There are many ways to graph linear equations. One way that will always work it to pick some points, 3 is plenty. Pick and x value, plug it in and then find the y value. You will obtain a set or ordered pairs. Graph these and connect the dots. Voila------------- a line!
What is a good way to show the relationship between two variables?
line graph
A graph made up of connected lines or curves is called?
it depends which way it curls. if it goes to the right its a hyperbola line grpah and if it goes to the left its a parabola line graph.
Which is a correct way of graphing the line y -x - 2?
y -x - 2 is not an equation (nor an inequality) and so there is no way to graph it.
How do he graph linear equations?
Two ways: Way 1: Find two points on the line, graph, and extend line. Way 2: Put the equation in slope-intercept form, plot the constant, use the slope to find the next point(s). Extend the line.
What is a line graph and bar graph?
A line graph is shaped like a triangle and a bar graph is exactly like column but bar graph is other way around
How do you graph the equation yx plus 4?
That's not an equation, so there's nothing to graph. Simple way to tell: There's no "equals" sign in it.
What are the difference between a line graph and bar graph?
Bar graphs use bars and a line graph is like a scatter graph but with a straight line to see wich way the dots are going.
Why don't you connect the dots on the line graph?
This question cannot be answered in a sensible way because it is based on a misunderstanding. The dots in a line graph ARE connected. That is what a line graph is. If they are not connected then it is a scatter graph.
How is graphing a linear inequality the same as graphing a liner equation?
They are alike in that you graph the lines in the same way, but they are different because you have to shade in one side of the line
Write the equation in slope intercept form and sketch the graph and please show steps?
Slope-Intercept form is the form y=mx+b. Sketching the graph involves plotting the line on the coordinate plane. The easiest way to do that is to create two different points from the equation, plot them on the graph and trace a line through them with a ruler. Showing your steps means showing how you got the equation. Make sure that any math you do in your head you put on the paper. Other than that I don't know how to answer this. Was there supposed to be an actual equation with it?
How do you graph the equation 8x plus 2y equals -1?
Same way you graph y = -4x - 0.5
How do you find b when given an undefined slope and point?
I think you are trying to use the equation y = mx +b, but that form is useful only when m is a number. If the slope is infinite, or "undefined", the line is a vertical line on the graph and its equation is x = c (constant) If the line passes through some given point (x0,y0), then the equation of the line is x = x0 . There no Y-intercept unless x0 = 0 so the equation of the line is x = 0 , In this special case the graph is exactly the Y-axis so, in a way, every point on it is a Y-intercept or a value for b.
What are two ways you can find the slope of a line s?
1st way graph 2nd way y1-y2 over x1-x2 3rd in equation y=mx+b m is the slope
3s equals 2t is this a linear equation or nonlinear?
3s=2t can also be written as 3y=2x or 3x=2y. Either way, it is linear. To find out if it is linear, simply graph it. If you can draw a completely vertical line through any point of the graph without intersecting more than one point of the graph, then it is linear. This equation (3s=2t), it is linear.
