Recap: Rule to Line

Part of the Graphs & Systems section of Coddy's Algebra journey. Lesson 10 of 64.

A two-variable equation is a rule making points; the points of a linear rule fall on one line; substituting decides whether a point is on it; and two points are enough to draw it. The challenge is one line, start to finish.

Challenge

Draw the line y = -2x + 3.

Try it yourself

y = -2x + 3

Draw the graph

Test yourself
