4. Graphing Linear Equations in Standard Form
Sign In
In this exercise, we are asked to graph an equation with only one variable term. This means that the graph will either be horizontal or vertical. To graph it, let's first rewrite the given equation in standard form, Ax+ By= C.
y=2 ⇔ 0x+ 1y= 2
| x | 0x+1y=2 | Simplify | (x,y) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0( 0)+1y=2 | y=2 | ( 0,2) |
| 2 | 0( 2)+1y=2 | y=2 | ( 2,2) |
| 4 | 0( 4)+1y=2 | y=2 | ( 4,2) |
| 6 | 0( 6)+1y=2 | y=2 | ( 6,2) |
Now we will plot these points and connect them with a line to form our graph.
