The given equation is expressed as

x + 4y = 8

4y = 8 - x

y = 2 - x/4

The first step is to input values for x into the equation and determine the corresponding y values. These values are then plotted on the graph.

For x = 0, y = 2 - 0/4 = 2

For x = 1, y = 2 - 1/4 = 1.75

For x = 2, y = 2 - 2/4 = 1.5

We would plot these points on the graph
