Question

Can you make a graph that models the equation 4x + 2y = 8?

Answer 1

One of the easier ways to graph this line is the intercept method:

First, let x=0.  Then 2y=8, and y=4.  The y-intercept is (0,4).

Next, let y = 0.  Then 4x = 8.  The x-intercept is (8,0).

Plot these 2 points.  Then draw a straight line through them.
