I. Answer the following questions about ordered pairs.
1. List 4 ordered pairs that would be solutions to the equation y = 2x – 2.
2. List 4 ordered pairs that would be found on the graph of 3x + 2y = 6.

II. Graph each equation below. You may use Slope-Intercept Form to plot the y-intercept and a
second point or you may find both intercepts and plot them. Put your graphs on the graph paper
attached to this worksheet. Use the lines below each equation to record the two points you graph to
create your line. As an example, the points for #4 are already listed for you. Be sure to graph it
before you move onto #5.
