Question

How do you graph an equation such as `4x+3y=12`?

Answer 1

For a linear equation solve the equation for any two points and on a graph draw a line through those points.

Explanation:

Often two convenient points to evaluate for a linear equation are the x and y intercepts.
For the equation `4x+3y = 12`
the x intercept (`y=0`) is at `(3,0)` and
the y intercept (`x=0`) is at `(0,4)`
