Question

Which of the following is not a step used when graphing the equation y = 1/4−x + 8 using the
slope-intercept method?

Plot the x-intercept (32, 0).

Plot the y-intercept (0, 8).

Draw a line through the two points.

Count down 1 and right 4 from the y-intercept.

Answer 1

Hey, you've asked a few of these questions. Want to try to work it out on your own, and tell us what you don't get?

Answer 2

i just dont get how to graph them

Answer 3

Can you tell me which points are the y and x intercepts?

Answer 4

y=(0,0) and x=(-1,4)

Answer 5

is that right?

Answer 6

Is the equation
y = 1/4−x + 8 or
y = -(1/4)x + 8?

Answer 7

the first one

Answer 8

Ok, first simplify the equation.

Answer 9

how?

Answer 10

just like give me an example

Answer 11

y = 1/4−x + 8
y=-x+32/4+1/4
combine the constants 8 and 1/4

Answer 12

oh so you multiply 4 & 8 to get the product of 32

Answer 13

No..

Answer 14

I rewrote 8 as 32/4

Answer 15

..... :(

Answer 16

oh

Answer 17

Look, I think you have the problem wrong.
\(y = \frac{1}{4}−x + 8\)
or
\(y = -\frac{1}{4}x + 8\)

Answer 18

#2

Answer 19

Ok. Then, can you tell me the slope?
