Question

Check my answer, I think it is C.
Which of the following is not a step used when graphing the equation y = −one over fourx + 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

Seems a strange question to me.
Suppose the right answer is C, then you don't graph the equation at all. That can't be right.
Suppose the answer is A: could be, because you don't need (32,0). Just do the other steps.
Suppose the answer is D: could be, because if you have (32,0) and (0,8), all you have to do is draw the line.

Answer 2

All is is asking is which step isn't right.

Answer 3

I know, but I think that that every step is right, but not every step is needed.
So:
if you do steps A, B and C, then D is not needed.
if you do B, C and D, then A is not needed.

Because you have to draw the graph, C is always needed, imo.

Answer 4

Wha about A, bc there is no 32, in the sentence.

Answer 5

(32, 0) is on the graph, because -1/4 * 32 + 8 = 0

Answer 6

I would go for A: plotting (32,0) isn'very convenient, because it's far away...
If you plot (0, 8) (B), then go 1 down and 4 right (D), you can then draw the line between these points (C).

So A is not needed.
