Question 519633: How do I find the points x,y for the equation y=1/6x+4?
And also, could you please show me how to multiply the x value by 1/6? Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x * 1/6 = x/1 * 1/6 = x*1 / 1*6 = x/6
.
y = 1/6*x +4
.
set x=0
y = 1/6(0) +4 = 4
(0,4) is the y-intercept
.
set y=0
0 = 1/6x + 4
multiply both sides by 6 to eliminate the fraction
6*0 = 6*(1/6*x + 4) = 6*(1/6)*x + 6*4
0 = x + 24
x = -24
(-24,0) is the x-intercept
.
