Draw the graph of the equation. $2 x - 3 y = 18$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To graph the equation, we can find the intercepts by setting x and y to zero in turn:
- When x = 0, we have -3y = 18, so y = -6. Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, -6).
- When y = 0, we have 2x = 18, so x = 9. Therefore, the x-intercept is (9, 0).
Plot these two points, and draw a straight line passing through them. This line represents all the pairs of numbers (x, y) that satisfy the equation 2x - 3y = 18. The correct graph is B.
