1.
if   , that is a point (, )
and if   ,that is a point (,)
now we can find equation of the line that passes through these two points

hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (4, 0) and (x2, y2) = (0, 8).
Slope a is  .
Intercept is found from equation  , or  . From that,
intercept b is  , or  .
y=(-2)x + (8)
