Refer to the equation 4x – 2y = 12
To make a table we need to solve for y
4x – 2y = 12
Subtract 4x on both sides
-2y = -4x + 12
Now divide the whole equation by -2
y = 2x - 6
Now we assume 4 values for x and find out y to make a table
x y = 2x-6
0 y= 2(0) -6 = -6
1 y= 2(1) -6 = -4
2 y= 2(2) -6 = -2
3 y= 2(3) -6 = 0
We got 4 points (0,-6) (1,-4) (2,-2) and (3,0)
Use the table and graph the line
