According to the video, what are the steps to graphing a linear equation? (Make sure your sound is on.)

Solve for y by isolating it, identify slope and y-int, plot the y-int, use the slope to plot another point then draw line through the points.

Graph the slope, graph the y-intercept, then connect them.

Solve for y, plot the slope, plot the y-intercept.

Put equation in standard form, find two points, draw a line through them.
