Question

Refer to the equation 4x + 3y = 24

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the equation $4x+3y=24$

1. When x = 0, then

$4\cdot 0+3y=24\\ \\3y=24\\ \\y=8$

When y = 0, then

$4x+3\cdot 0=24\\ \\4x=24\\ \\x=6$

When x = 3, then

$4\cdot 3+3y=24\\ \\12+3y=24\\ \\3y=12\\ \\y=4$

Complete the table:

$\begin{array}{cc}x&y\\0&8\\3&4\\6&0\end{array}$

2. Use the table of values to graph the line. Plot two points (0,8) and (6,0) and connect them with a straight line. See attached diagram for details.
