Graphing a linear equation with slope and y-intercept

1.) Find the slope and the y-intercept. 2.) Plot the y-intercept on the graph. 3.) Begin at the y-intercept. Move up or down the number of units represented by the numerator of the slope (rise). If the numerator is positive, move up. If the numerator is negative, move down. 4.) From that position, move left or right the number of units represented by the denominator of the slope (run). If the denominator is positive, move right. If the denominator is negative, move left. 5.) Plot this point and draw a line that passes through this point and the y-intercept. This will give you the graph of the line.

To graph an equation using the intercepts:

1.) Find the x-intercept by letting y = 0 and solving for x. 2.) Find the y-intercept by letting x = 0 and solving for y. 3.) Plot the two points on a graph. 4.) Draw a line through the pints. Put an arrow on each end of the line to indicate that the line extends in both directions.

To graph a linear equation in two variables:

1.) Find three ordered pairs that are solutions to the linear equation. 2.) Plot the ordered pairs on the graph. 3.) Draw a line through the three points.
