Refer to explanation below.
Explanation:
First rearrange the equation.
Now, substitute x = 0 into the equation to find the intersection with the y-axis.
Therefore the graph intersects the y-axis at (0, 0)
Now, substitute y = 0 into the equation to find the intersection with the x-axis.
Therefore the graph intersects the x-axis at (0, 0)
The gradient of the graph is found by looking at the coefficient of x.
Therefore the graph is observed to have a negative gradient with the value of
graph{2x + 6y = 0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
