How do you graph #y=-x+2# by plotting points?

1 Answer

#(0,2) (1, 1) ( 2, 0) ........ #

Explanation:

#y = - x + 2#

Choose x-values and use the given equation to work out y-values.
if...
#x = 0, y = 2 rarr ( 0 , 2)#
#x = 1, y = 1 rarr ( 1, 1 )#
#x = 2, y = 0 rarr ( 2 , 0)#

so plot the points #(0,2), (1, 1), ( 2, 0)# on a grid and join them with a straight line.
