An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 and the y-axis ranging from negative 11 to 11 in increments of 1. A solid downward line with arrows at both ends is plotted on the graph. he line passes through the plotted points left parenthesis 0 comma negative 2 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 1 comma negative 5 right parenthesis. A dotted vertical line labeled 3 from left parenthesis 1 comma negative 5 right parenthesis and a dotted horizontal line labeled 1 from left parenthesis 0 comma negative 2 right parenthesis intersect at left parenthesis 1 comma negative 2 right parenthesis, forming a right triangle with the slope.

A coordinate plane shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 in increments of 1 and the y-axis ranging from 11 to negative 11 in increments of 1. A line with arrows at both ends joins two plotted points.
The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 2 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 1 comma negative 1 right parenthesis.

An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 and the y-axis ranging from negative 11 to 11 in increments of 1. A solid upward line with arrows at both ends is plotted on the graph. The line passes through the plotted points left parenthesis 0 comma 3 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 1 comma 5 right parenthesis.

The correct response is:

An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 and the y-axis ranging from negative 11 to 11 in increments of 1. A solid downward line with arrows at both ends is plotted on the graph. The line passes through the plotted points (0, -2) and (1, -5). A dotted vertical line labeled 3 from (1, -5) and a dotted horizontal line labeled 1 from (0, -2) intersect at (1, -2), forming a right triangle with the slope.

To graph the linear equation y = -3x + 2, follow these steps:

1. Draw a coordinate plane with four quadrants.
2. Label the x-axis with increments from -9 to 9.
3. Label the y-axis with increments from -11 to 11.
4. Plot two points on the graph: (0, 2) and (1, -5).
5. Use these points to draw a solid line with arrows at both ends. The line will pass through the plotted points.
6. Optionally, you can draw a dotted vertical line labeled 3 from the point (1, -5) and a dotted horizontal line labeled 1 from the point (0, -2). These lines will intersect at the point (1, -2), forming a right triangle with the slope.

Note: The description of the graph may be different from the images provided, but the steps to graph the equation are the same.
