Which of the following statements best describes the graph of 4x – y = 1? It is a straight line joining the points (0, –1), (1, 3), and (–1, –5). It is a straight line joining the points (4, –3), (–1, 2), and (–4, 5). It is a curve joining the points (4, –1), (2, 3), and (4, 1). It is a curve joining the points (0, –1), (–1, –3), and (1, 5).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe it is A.

First; graph the equation. You'll need to rewrite it so it is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), which would get you y=4x-1. After you graph it, look for the points you stated inside the line.

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Plug in those values and it should = 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wrote it in a graph and the y-intercept was -1(duh), and the x-intercept was 0.25.

Alright; you have one point that you know for certain is on the line which is 0, -1. However; finding the other points is a drag. So; input the values that the answers give you and solve. If each ordered pair works in the graph; that's the answer. If NONE of the points work; this problem is written wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Scratch off graph for equation. Sorry!

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Just enter the given order pairs they gave you,

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

You don't need the graph.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah, okay. Thanks to both. Winter break did no good to meh.

Tomorrow's midterms. I know the struggle.
