how do I graph x-2y=6

 

[TheOAP]

x - 6 = 2y
y = x/2 - 3

Isolate y.

x - 2y = 6

-2y = -x + 6

y = (-x + 6)/-2

y = (x/2) - 3

Take it from here....

graph is a line, so you need 2 points (easiest way is to use intercepts) that lie on line, make table
x|y
0|-3
6|0
then, plot these points and draw a line through

I like graphing calculators, Desmos, etc but graphing by hand is uniquely fun.
