Choose some values of x and substitute them into the rule.
We want to graph the rule y = 2x - 6. To do this, we can choose some values of x and substitute them into the rule, one at a time.
x | 2x - 6 | y |
---|---|---|
0 | 2( 0) - 6 | - 6 |
1 | 2( 1) - 6 | - 4 |
2 | 2( 2) - 6 | - 2 |
3 | 2( 3) - 6 | 0 |
Let's graph each pair of (x,y) as a point on a coordinate plane.
Finally, we can connect the points with a line.
