online college doesnt teach very good.

Graph by first solving for y.

4x – 3y = 6

4x – 3y = 6

subtract 4x for both sides
-3y = -4x +6

divided by -3 for both sides
y = 4/3x -2

this is not college level math, i can do this in grade 10 math. 4x - 3y = 6 first get rid of the 4 x y subtracting it from both sides, your equation now looks like this: --3y = -4x + 6 (assume positive for six because there is no indication of a negative.) now to get rid of the -3 attatched to the y, divide -3 throughout the whole equation: -3y/-3 = -4x/-3 + 6/-3 because dividing a negative by a negative always equals a positive, and a positive divided by a negative equals a negative your FINAL equation should look like this: y = 4/3x - 2. this is also known as a y=mx + b formula in which case m is slope and b is the y-intercept (the point at which the line crosses the y axis) to graph it, start on the -2 point and go four points up and three points across to the right because they are both positive numbers repeat this process using 4 down and three to the left until you run out of graph room.

hope this helps

You should be able to do this before entering college, but anyway. subract the (4x) from both sides to get: -3y=-4x+6. then divide by -3 to get y alone. you'll get y=4/3x-3. Then plug in values for x such as -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3 and plot accordingly.

subtract 4x from each side:

-3y= -4x+6

divide by -3:

y= 4x/3 -2


4/3 is the slope, -2 is the y-intercept

I believe that you could have solved all these problems in the time it took to type them in as questions.
