Answer

Point A: $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ $y=\frac{1}{3}(0)+2$ $y=2$ Point B: $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ $y=\frac{1}{3}(-3)+2$ $y=-1+2$ $y=1$ Point C: $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ $0=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ $-2=\frac{1}{3}x$ $x=-6$

Work Step by Step

To find the coordinates of Point A and B, substitute the given x-values into the given formula $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ to find the y-value for the corresponding x-values. To find the coordinates of Point C, substitute the given y-value into the given formula $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ to find the x-value for the corresponding x-value. When all three points are found, plot each point on the graph provided and draw a straight line, which represents (graphically) the given formula $y=\frac{1}{3}x+2$ .
