In the following exercises, graph by plotting points.

x+y=−3

Short Answer

Expert verified

The graph of the equation is

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information 

In the given exercises we have to graph by plotting points.

x+y=−3

02

Step 2. Find three points that are solutions to the equation.First, solve the equation for y.

x+y=−3

Subtract xon both side

x+y-x=−3-xy=−3-x

03

Step 3. Now the equation is y=−3-xFinding the point by putting the values.

x=0x=1x=2y=−3-xy=−3-xy=−3-xy=−3-0y=−3-1y=−3-2y=−3y=−4y=−5

Now the points are(0,-3),(1,-4),(2,-5)

04

Step 4. Plot all points in a rectangular coordinate system.Plot the points (0,-3), (1,-4), (2,-5)

05

Step 5. Draw the lines through the three points.
