Algebra.Com's Answer #378440 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! graph the line:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + 4y = 16\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "my answer is x + 4 * y - 16 = 0, is this correct\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "Solve for either x or y. \n" ); document.write( "x = -4y + 16 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "It's a straight line, so you need 2 points. \n" ); document.write( "Pick 2 values for y and find x: \n" ); document.write( "y = 0, x = 16 --> point (16,0) \n" ); document.write( "y = 4, x = 0 --> point (0,4) \n" ); document.write( "Plot them, draw a line thru them. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
