Question

Plot the point on the line with the x-coordinate x = -8

Answer 1

Given the equation:

`-4x+y-38=0`

We will find the point on the line with the x-coordinate x = -8

So, substitute with x = -8, and solve the equation to find y

So, when x = -8

`\begin{gathered} (-4)\cdot(-8)+y-38=0 \\ 32+y-38=0 \\ y-6=0 \\ y=6 \end{gathered}`

So, the point will be (x,y) = (-8, 6)

The graph of the point on the line will be as follows:
