Question

Find the x and y intercepts and graph the equation plooting the intercept......4x-7y=-28 show the work.. GET THE MEDAL

Answer 1

if u want to find the x-intercept u put y=0 and when u want to find the y-intercept u put x=0

Answer 2

HUH?

Answer 3

Let's try the first one. Let's substitute x=0
4(0) - 7y = -28
Solve for y and this will tell you the y intercept. (in other words where is y when x = 0)

Answer 4

4x-7y+-28
4(0)-7y=-28
0-7y=-28

7y=-28
-- ----
7 7

y=-4

can you tell me if i did it right

Answer 5

Almost. Notice you had
0-7y=-28
but then the next line red
7y=-28
you need to be careful not to drop the negative :)

Answer 6

where did I drop the negative

Answer 7

When you went to divide both sides by 7. That should be dividing both sides by -7.

Answer 8

o I see with the -7y

Answer 9

so the answer will be a postive 4 in sead of a negative 4

Answer 10

4x-7y=-28
4x-7(0)=-28
4x-0=-28

4x=-28
-- ----
4 4

x=-7


right

Answer 11

correct
