How do you graph the equation 5x- 2y= -4
---------------
Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept:
---
x-intercept:
Let y = 0, then x = -4/5, giving you point (-4/5,0)
-------------
y-intercept:
Let x = 0,then y = 2, giving you point (0,2)
-------------
Plot the two points and draw a line thru them.
