Question
Draw the graph of y = – 3x
Solution
To draw graph, we need to find out some points
y = – 3x
for y = – 3x, let us first substituting values and check
put x = 0
y = 3 × 0 = 0
∴ (0, 0) is a point
put x = 1
y = – 3 × 1 = – 3
∴ (1, – 3) is a point
Now let us plot the points & join them on graph
