How do I graph this equation? y = 4x + 1? Can someone tell me step by step?
Plott a Cartesian Plane, then find x and intercept.
An x-intercept is a pointon the graph where y is zero.
An y-intercept is a pointon the graph where x is zero.
In tis case:
x-intercept
0 = 4 x + 1
Subtract 1 both sides
- 1 = 4 x
Divide both sides by 4
- 1 / 4 = x
x = - 1 / 4
Coordinate of x-intercept:
x = - 1 / 4 , y = 0
You can write that like ( - 1 / 4 , 0 )
y-intercept
y = 4 ∙ 0 + 1
y = 1
Coordinate of y-intercept:
x = 0 , y = 1
You can write that like ( 0 , 1 )
In a Cartesian Plane mark points ( - 1 / 4 , 0 ) and ( 0 , 1 ) then draw straight line.
