Log On
You can put this solution on YOUR website! When
x-intercept = 4, y=0
y-intercept = -2, x=0
So we have two points
Points (4,0) and (0,-2)
Put the values of above points in the equation of straight line point-slope form
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-2-0)/(0-4)
m=-2/-4
m=1/2
Slope the line is 1/2
Equation will be
y=mx+b
y=x/2-2
