Question

For the equation 8y=4+x answer part A and B
The x intercept is ____
The y intercept is ____

Answer 1

Any ideas?

Answer 2

I'm unsure of how to do this

Answer 3

I think 8y=4+x
so divide by 8?
y=4/8+x?

Answer 4

What are the definitions of the "intercepts" ?

Answer 5

where they intersect eachother

Answer 6

It is where the graph intersects the axis.

Answer 7

(-4,0) and (0,1/2)?

Answer 8

Answer 9

Those are both correct. Do you see how those are the x and y intercepts?

Answer 10

The x intercept is ____ the value of y when x = 0

8y=4+x

8y=4+0

y=1/2

Answer 11

I do understand now... Is it -1/2 or 1/2?

Answer 12

as skullpatrol is showing, it's positive

The graph is attached

Answer 13

x - 8y = 4; turn the equation in the slopeis the y-intercept. x - 8y = 4 x - x - 8y = -x + 4 -8y = -x + 4 divide by -8-intercept form, y = mx + b, where bto both sides y = x/8 - 1/2 Thus, the y-intercept is -1/2.
