The equation is .

\

The equation is in slope-intercept form.

To graph the equation, first graph the

                        (Subtract x from each side)

                                   (Additive inverse property: )

                              (Divide each side by 4)              

                                   (Cancel common terms)

First find the y-intercept.

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

                                       (Additive identity property: a + 0 = 0)

                                       (Divide: )

Next find the x-intercept.

The co-ordinate point is  (0, 2.5) \ \

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

                     (Multiply each side by 4)

                            (Cancel common terms)

                                  (Zero product property: )

                     (Add x to each side)

                                 (Additive inverse property: )

                                      (Additive identity property: )    

Next find the y-intercept.

The co-ordinate point is (10, 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.
