Substitute some arbitrary values of x into the given equation.
Practice makes perfect
To draw the graph of the given equation, we will use a table of values. Substituting some arbitrary values of x into the given equation will give us the corresponding y-values.
x
-2x - 3
y=-2x - 3
- 2
-2( - 2) - 3
1
- 1
-2( - 1) - 3
- 1
0
-2( 0) - 3
- 3
1
-2( 1) - 3
- 5
Now, let's plot these ( x, y) coordinate pairs and connect them with a straight line.
