How do you make a coordinate plane graph? I can't go and get my text book because its winter break! Could someone help me here? I need to know how to make one using an equation. specifically these equations
y = 6x - 2
y = -3x + 5
y = ½x + 3
please I need help now!!!
do you have a ti82 calculator?
I don't have a TI82 calculator.
How to make a graph.
For the equations, make a table for each and graph each separately. For the first one. Just assign values to either x or y and calculate the other.
x     y
------------------------
0     -2
1     +4
2     +10
-1    -8
-2    -14
Then use a suitable scale, mark 0 at the center, and +x to the right, -x to the left, +y up and -y down. Then put the points in the table on the graph and draw the straight line.

If you have a TI-82 calculator, you can follow these steps to graph equations:
1. Turn on the calculator by pressing the "ON" button.
2. Press the "Y=" button to enter the equation editor.
3. Enter the equation you want to graph, e.g., "y = 6x - 2". Use the "X," "÷," "+," "-," and "(-)" buttons to input the necessary mathematical symbols.
4. Press the "GRAPH" button to plot the graph.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other equations you want to graph.
After plotting all the equations, you can use the arrow keys to move the cursor on the graph. Pressing the "TRACE" button allows you to find the x and y coordinates of certain points on the graph. You can also adjust the window settings by pressing the "WINDOW" button to change the x and y scales.
However, if you don't have a TI-82 calculator, you can still graph the equations manually. Follow the steps I mentioned earlier: create a table, assign values to either x or y, calculate the other variable, and plot the points on a graph with a suitable scale.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
