Answer:
1. x-intercept = (1, 0), y-intercept = (0, -2)
7. y + 4 = -6( x - 7)
Explanation:
Question 1
Given point-slope equation:
The x-intercept is when y = 0:
The y-intercept is when x = 0:
Therefore, the intercepts are:
- x-intercept = (1, 0)
- y-intercept = (0, -2)
To graph the equation, plot the intercepts and draw a straight line through them. (See attachment 1).

Question 7
Given:
Substitute the given slope and point (7, -4) into the formula to write the equation of the line in point-slope form:
To graph the line, find the value of y when x = 6 and when x = 8:
To graph the equation, plot the points (6, 2) and (8, -10) and draw a straight line through them. (See attachment 2).
