Answer 1

Aha! Intercepts again!!

Copy down that equation onto paper. Then let y=0 (which will lead to your finding the x-intercept). Solve the resulting equation for x.

Answer 2

x= 1.75

Answer 3

graph c

Answer 4

@mathmale

Answer 5

sorry for the delay. Please explain why you chose graph c.

Answer 6

the equation is 4x+y=7 right?

Answer 7

J: I asked you to let y=0 (to find the x-intercept). If y = 0, then the equation becomes what? (Hint: you've already gotten this right).

Answer 8

Phil: Please solve that equation for x, given that y=0.

Answer 9

so is 4x+0=7 is the equation?

Answer 10

Yes, and so the solution is x=?? think: What does x represent?

Answer 11

x=7/4 right ?

Answer 12

that's right. I asked what x=7/4 represents; it's the x-coordinate of the x-intercept. So, take another look at the four choices of answers; which one is the correct graph?

Hope this helps you two to agree on an appropriate answer choice.

I'm going off line now. C u later.

Answer 13

@mathmale thank you I was thinking about a different way to solve a different equation and yes it is C

Answer 14
