Graph the following linear equation by finding its intercepts. 7x-4y=0

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Well without even putting it into a slope intercept form, if it =0, then the intercept will be at 0,0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I've already found that. But even so I can still substitute other numbers to graph it. But for some reason I keep getting it wrong no matter what I try.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

im not really sure what your question is lol

HI!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not either and that's the problem. :'D

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you could write it as \[y=\frac{7}{4}x\] then graph a line through \((0,0)\) with slope \(\frac{7}{4}\)

OpenStudy (misty1212):

for example it would go through \((4,7)\)

Thanks for the reply Misty! But I just tried that and it's still coming up wrong. Agghh. It is saying that my line is correct, but 'you must use the x- and y-intercepts to graph the equation. If there is only one intercept, use it and find another point to graph the line.'

Okay, I must have typed something in wrong because I retried my first answer and it was right. This is my first day of an online math course and I'm getting used to the software.
