Question 17648: 
The directions in my Algebra book is to "graph this equation". I'm not sure how to do these problems, but if I have an example to look at, I think I can figure the other problems out. PLEASE HELP! Thank-you.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Please see my recent Lesson Plan on Graphing and Slope of the Line for more details and examples. In this equation, the y intercept is 1, and the slope is -4 or -4/1, which means a rise of -4 and a run of 1.
To graph this start by graphing the y-intercept by going 1 unit up on the y-axis, and put the first point here. Next, with your pencil on this point on the y-axis, move DOWN 4, then go over 1 unit to the right, and put the next point. Then draw a line connecting the two points. It should look like this:
