Refer to the explanation.

Explanation:

Graph:

#y=x-6#

You only need two points to graph a straight line, the y-intercept and the x-intercept. The y-intercept is the value of #y# when #x=0#, and the x-intercept is the value of #x# when #y=0#. If you need more points, choose values for #x# and solve for #y#, and/or choose values for #y# and solve for #x#.

#x | y#
#0 | -6#
#6 | 0#

Plot the points and draw a straight line through the points.

graph{y=x-6 [-12.66, 12.65, -6.33, 6.33]}
