Math Problem Statement

find the slope and x,y intercepts of the line 3y+2x=6 and draw it

Solution

Here is the graph of the line 3y+2x=63y + 2x = 6, showing:

  • The y-intercept at (0,2)(0, 2),
  • The x-intercept at (3,0)(3, 0),
  • The line has a slope of 23-\frac{2}{3}, which indicates it slopes downward.

Do you have any questions, or would you like more details?

Here are 5 related questions you might explore:

  1. What happens to the slope if the coefficient of xx is increased?
  2. How do you find the slope between two points on a graph?
  3. How do parallel lines compare in terms of slope?
  4. What is the general form of a linear equation, and how can it be converted to slope-intercept form?
  5. How can we find the equation of a line given its slope and one point?

Tip: The slope of a line indicates how steep the line is; a negative slope means the line decreases as you move from left to right.
