+4x%2B2y=8+ many ways to do this ...
first solve for x ...
+4x%2B2y=8+ subtract 2y
+4x=8-2y+ divide by 4
+x=-1y%2F4+%2B+2+ x-intercept is 2
then solve for y ...
+4x%2B2y=8+ subtract 4x
+2y=-4x%2B8+ divide by 2
+y=-2x%2B4+ y-intercept is 4
plot these two points on your coordinate plane and draw the line between them.
