#"see explanation"#

Explanation:

#"one way is to find the intercepts, that is where the graph"#
#"crosses the x and y axes"#

#• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"#

#• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"#

#x=0to0+y=-6rArry=-6larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"#

#y=0to2x+0=-6rArrx=-3larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"#

#"plot "(0.-6),(-3,0)" and draw a straight line"#
#"through them"#
