$\"\"$ $\"\"$ $\"\"$

\

The linear function is $\"\"$ .

\

Replace $\"\"$ with y

\

$\"\"$

\

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0.

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute 0 for x)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Zero propduct property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

The y-intercept is -1. The graph crosses the y-axis at (0, -1). $\"\"$

\

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0.

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute 0 for y)

\

According to addition property of equality: if a = b, then a + c = b + c.

\

$\"\"$ (Add 1 to each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive identity property: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

According to division property of equality: if $\"\"$ , then $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ (Divide each side by 4)

\

$\"\"$ (Cancel common terms)

\

The x-intercept is $\"\"$ . The graph crosses the x-axis at ( $\"\"$ , 0). $\"\"$

\

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\

1. Draw a coordinate plane

\

2. Plot the points

\

3. Draw a line through these points.
