California Standards:6.0 Students graph a linear equation and compute the x- and y-intercepts (e.g., graph 2x + 6y = 4). They are also able to sketch the region defined by linear inequality (e.g., they sketch the region defined by 2x + 6y < 4).
7.0 Students verify that a point lies on a line, given an equation of the line. Students are able to derive linear equations by using the point-slope formula.
What it means for you:You’ll learn how to graph a straight line by joining two points.
Key Words:• linear equation

Graphing Ax + By = CGraphing Ax + By = C
Every point on a line is a solution to the equation of the line.
If you know any two solutions (any two coordinate pairs), then you can join the points with a straight line.

Graphing the Line Ax + By = C Using Two Points
The graph of the equation Ax + By = C consists of all points (x, y) whose coordinates satisfy Ax + By = C.
To graph the line, you just need to plot two points on it and join them together with a straight line.

Graphing Ax + By = CGraphing Ax + By = C
• Rearrange the equation so it is in the form y = Px + Q.
• Choose two values of x and substitute them into your equation to find the corresponding values of y.
Topic4.2.2
• Plot the two points and draw a straight line through them.
• Plot a third point to check that the line is correct — the point should lie on the line.
Here’s how you go about it:

Graphing Ax + By = CGraphing Ax + By = C
Example 1
Plot and label the graph of the equation x – y = –3.
Solution follows…
Topic4.2.2
Rearrange the equation to get y = x + 3.
Solution
Choose two values of x, then draw a table to help you find the y-values:
(4, 7)y = x + 3, so y = 4 + 3 = 74
(–2, 1)y = x + 3, so y = –2 + 3 = 1–2
(x, y)yx
Solution continues…

Plot and label the graph of the equation x – y = –3.
Graphing Ax + By = CGraphing Ax + By = C
Example 1
When you plot the graph, the line should be straight.

Topic4.2.2
When x = 1
Check your solution:
So (x, y) = (1, 4)
y = x + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4
(1, 4) lies on the line — which means the line is correct.

Example 2
Plot and label the graph of the equation y = –2x – 4.
Solution follows…
Topic4.2.2
Solution
Choose two values of x, then draw a table to help you find the y-values:
(2, –8)y = –2x – 4 = –2(2) – 4 = –82
(–2, 0)y = –2x – 4 = –2(–2) – 4 = 0–2
(x, y)yx

(0, –4)
Plot and label the graph of the equation y = –2x – 4.
Graphing Ax + By = CGraphing Ax + By = C
Example 2
Use the points in the table to plot the graph.

Topic4.2.2
x = 0
Check:
(0, –4) lies on the line — which means the line is correct.
(2, –8)
(–2, 0)
(x, y)
y = –2x – 4 = –2(0) – 4
= 0 – 4 = – 4

Round UpRound Up
It’s easy to make a mistake when working out y-values, so choose x-values that will make the algebra easy (for example, 0 and 1).
And it’s always a good idea to check your line by plotting a third point.
