Graph y=-(x square root of 3)/3

$y = - \frac{x \sqrt{3}}{3}$

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Write in $y = m x + b$ form.

Reorder terms.

$y = - (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} x)$

Remove parentheses.

$y = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} x$

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = - \frac{1}{3}$

$b = 0$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $- \frac{1}{3}$

y-intercept: $(0, 0)$

Slope: $- \frac{1}{3}$

y-intercept: $(0, 0)$

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two $x$ values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding $y$ values.

Write in $y = m x + b$ form.

Reorder terms.

$y = - (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} x)$

Remove parentheses.

$y = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} x$

Create a table of the $x$ and $y$ values.

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ 0 & 0 \\ 3 & - \sqrt{3} \end{array}$

Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.

Slope: $- \frac{1}{3}$

y-intercept: $(0, 0)$

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ 0 & 0 \\ 3 & - \sqrt{3} \end{array}$
