Question

Choose the correct procedure used to graph the equation 2x + 4y = 24 using the intercepts method.

Solve the equation for y to get a y-intercept of (0, 6) and a slope of -one half. Plot the y-intercept, count the slope to get another point and draw the line that passes through the two points.

Let x equal zero and solve for y to find a y-intercept of (0, 6). Let y equal zero and solve for x to find an x-intercept of (12, 0). Plot the two points and draw a line passing through the two points.

Choose two different values; plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y-values. Plo
