The intercept method of graphing is quick and easy.
Find the x-intercept by setting y = 0 and solving for x:
y+1=1/3(x−3) => 0+1=1/3(x−3)
Multiply both sides by 3: 3 = x - 3. Then x = 6, and the x-int. is (6, 0).
Find the y-int by setting x = 0 and solving for y:
y+1=1/3(0−3)
Mult both sides by 3: 3y+3 = -3, so that 3y = -6, and y = -2.
Then the y-intercept is (0,-2).
Plot these 2 points. Then draw a line thru them.
