Question

x+4y=8
how do i graph this?? how do i get the points?

Answer 1

it will be easier to graph if you write the same equation in different form:
4y=8-x
y=2- x/2

it's a line - you'll need to identify only two points to graph, let's say x=1 (y=2) and... your choice.
Finish it

Answer 2

im confused

Answer 3

i came up with (0,2) (8,0)

Answer 4

is that right?

Answer 5

(0,2) is correct,
let's try your second choice:
if x=8, y=2- 8/2 = 2-4 = -2
your answer is wrong. it should be (8,-2) for second point

Answer 6

y=-1/4x + 2 so if x=4 then y=1
x=0 then y = 2
x = 8 then y = 0

Answer 7

Oups, you are right,
I made a mistake in original eq...
it should be:
y= 2- x/4
so, (8,0) is CORRECT

Answer 8

oh ok... thank u so much!

Answer 9

By the way. The graph is a straihgt line going down (the minus of the x) and cutting the y axis in 2.

Answer 10

how is it a straight line??
