Question

For each equation give for solution. Then, graph the solution set on the graph provided.

Answer 1

Given the equation x+2y=8

`\begin{gathered} \text{When x=-4} \\ x+2y=8 \\ -4+2y=8 \\ 2y=8+4 \\ 2y=12 \\ y=6 \\ (-4,\text{ 6)} \end{gathered}`

When x = -2

`\begin{gathered} \\ x+2y=8 \\ -2+2y=8 \\ 2y=8+2 \\ 2y=10 \\ y=5 \\ (-2,\text{ 5)} \end{gathered}`

When x=0

`\begin{gathered} \\ x+2y=8 \\ 0+2y=8 \\ 2y=8 \\ y=4 \\ (0,\text{ 4)} \\ \end{gathered}`

When x=2

`\begin{gathered} \\ x+2y=8 \\ 2+2y=8 \\ 2y=8-2 \\ 2y=6 \\ (2,\text{ 3)} \end{gathered}`

We then plot these points.
