1) Plot the y-intercept at (0, -3). Use the slope of 2 to find another point by moving up 2 units and right 1 unit to (1, -1). Draw a line through these points.
2) Plot the y-intercept at (0, 2). Use the slope of -3 to find another point by moving down 3 units and right 1 unit to (1, -1). Draw a line through these points.
3) Plot the y-intercept at (0, -5). Use the slope of 1/2 to find another point by moving up 1 unit and right 2 units to (2, -4). Draw a line through these points.
4) Plot the y-intercept at (0, 4). Use the slope of -2/3 to find another point by moving down 2 units and right 3 units to (3, 2). Draw a line through these points.
5) Rewrite as y = -x + 4. Plot the y-intercept at (0, 4). Use the slope of -1 to find another point by moving down 1 unit and right 1 unit to (1, 3). Draw a line through these points.
6) Draw a horizontal line passing through y = 3 on the y-axis. This line includes all points where the y-coordinate is 3.
