-2x+4y = 8
First find the y intercept
Let x =0
-2(0) + 4y = 8
4y = 8
Divide by 4
4y/4 = 8/4
y = 2
The y intercept is 2
(0,2)
Now find the x intercept
y = 0
-2x +4(0) = 8
-2x = 8
Divide by -2
-2x/-2 = 8/-2
x = -4
The x intercept is -4
(-4,0)
We can plot the two points and draw a straight line between them
