Graph the equation by plotting points y 1


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 318 People


Plot the x- and y-intercepts to graph the equation.
y = 1/3x − 1

Answered by maham237 @



Answer: The x-intercept and y-intercept are 3 and -1 respectively.


Step-by-step explanation: We are given a linear equation and we are plot the graph using x-intercept and y-intercept.

The given linear equation is

y=\dfrac{1}{3}x-1.

Here, y-intercept is - 1. So, a point on the graph will be (0,-1).

We can also write the given equation in the following form

\dfrac{1}{3}x=y+1\\\\\Rightarrow x=3y+3.

Therefore, x-intercept is 3 and the other point will be B(3,0).

Plotting these two on a graph paper and joining, we will get the graph of the given linear equation. Please see the attached figure.
