3x-4y=8

Answer 1

Here's my answer

hope it helps

Answer 2

See attachment for graph

Explanation:

Given

`3x - 4y = 8`

Required

Graph the line

First, we calculate the intercepts

Set x = 0

So:

`3x - 4y = 8`

`3*0 - 4y = 8`

`- 4y = 8`

Divide by -4

`y = -2`

So, we have:

`(x,y) = (0,-2)`

Next, set y = 0

So:

`3x - 4y = 8`

`3x - 4 * 0 = 8`

`3x = 8`

Divide by 3

`x = 8/3`

So, we have:

`(x,y) = (8/3,0)`

The graph to be plotted must pass through
`(x,y) = (0,-2)` and
`(x,y) = (8/3,0)`
