Question 932912: Graph each equation.state the slope,y-intercept, and x-intercept
5. 8x+4y=-24

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
8x+4y=-24
x = 0 , y-intercept = -6
y = 0, x-intercept = -3
.....
the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line is
y+=+highlight_green%28m%29x+%2B+highlight%28b%29 where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
8x+4y=-24
0r
y = -2x - 6
-2 is the slope and -6 the y-intercept.
Plot intercepts and connect with line (slants to the left...negative slope)
