Question

A function has X-intercept 4 and y-intercept 2. name two other points on the graph of this function. Please explain thoroughly on how to find another point.

Answer 1

For this case we have the following:

x intercept 4: (4,0)

y intercept 2: (0,2)

Then we can find the slope like this:

`m=(2-0)/(0-4)=-(1)/(2)`

then the equation is given by:

y= -1/2 x+ 2

and we can use x= 1 and we have y= 3/2

x= 2 , y= 1

Then two other points could be:

(1,3/2) and (2,1)
