You can put this solution on YOUR website!
4X+4Y=2
4Y=-4X+2
Y=-X+.5
THIS LINE HAS A SLOPE OF -1 & A Y INTERCEPT OF .5
THE X INTERCEPT IS
0=-X+.5
-X=-.5
X=.5 IS THE X INTERCEPT
PLOT THE TWO POINTS(.5,0) & (0,.5) AND YOU HAVE A SLOPE OF -1

Let x=0 and solve for y.
4(0)+4y=2
0+4y=2
4y=2
4y/4=2/4
y=1/2 Plot(0,1/2)
:
Let y=0 and solve for x:
4x+4(0)=2
4x+0=2
4x=2
4x/4=2/4
x=1/2 Plot (1/2,0)
Connect the points and you have this line:

Happy Calculating!!!
