Question

8y = 4x - 1
Find the x and y intercepts of the line

Answer 1

x-intercept=1/4 y-intercept= -1/8

Explanation:

First, simplify the equation, y= 1/2x-1/8

Then you want to graph the equation with a slope of positive 1/2 starting at -1/8 that'll intercept across the x-axis at 1/4.

To find the y-intercept, you simply have to keep in mind that y=mx+b

b=y-intercept

So our y-intercept is stated in the equation after we simplified it
