The equation is
.
First find the y-intercept.
\The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.
\
(Substitute x = 0 in original equation)
(Apply zero product property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
The y-intercept is 4.
\The co-ordinate point is
.
Next find the x-intercept.
\The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.
\
(Substitute y = 0 in original equation)
Apply subtraction property of equality:If a = b then a
c = b
c.
(Subtract 4 from each side)
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
Apply multiplication property of equality: If a = b then a
c = b
c.
(Multiply each side by negative 3)
(Cancel common terms)
(Multiply:
)
The x-intercept is 12.
\The co-ordinate point is
.
Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.
\1. Draw a coordinate plane.
\2. Plot the points.
\3. Draw a line through these points.
\
For the graph using x-intercept is 12 and y-intercept is 4 is
