\

The equation is y = 4 + x.

\

The equation is in slope-intercept form.

\

First find the y-intercept.

\

The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.

\

y = 4 + 0                      (Substitute: x = 0)

\

y = 4                            (Additive identity property: 4 + 0 = 4)

\

The co-ordinate point is (0, 4) \"\"

\

Next find the x-intercept.

\

The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.

\

0 = 4 + x                     (Substitute: y = 0)

\

0\"\"4 = 4 + x\"\"4           (Subtract 4 from each side)

\

0\"\"4 = 4\"\"4 + x           (Commutative property: a + b = b + a)

\

0\"\"4 = x                      (Additive inverse property: 4\"\"4 = 0)

\

x = \"\"4                        (Additive identity property: 0\"\"4 = \"\"4)

\

The co-ordinate point is (4, 0)\"\"

\

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\

1.      Draw a coordinate plane.

\

2.      Plot the points.

\

3.      Draw a line through these points.
