2y-4x=8?
It's an equation of a line.
We first find the x & y intercept via the slope intercept form; y=mx%2Bb,
2y-4x=8 ----> 2y=4x%2B8EQN 1
cross%282%29y%2Fcross%282%29=%284x%2B8%29%2F2
y=4x%2F2%2B8%2F2---> y=2x%2B4
y intercept: (0,4)
x intercept @ f(y)=0:
Via EQN 1:
2%280%29=4x%2B8 ----> cross%284%291x%2Fcross%284%29=cross%28-8%292%2Fcross%284%29,
x=-2
see graph:
--- points (-2,4)
