The equation is .

First find the y-intercept.

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

                (Substitute x = 0 in original equation)

                          (Zero product property: )

                                 (Apply Additive identity property: )

The y-intercept is 1.

The co-ordinate point is

Next find the x-intercept.

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

                      (Substitute y = 0 in original equation)

         (Subtract 1 from  each  side)

                (Apply Additive inverse property: )

                       (Apply Additive identity property: )

                           (Subtract: )

                      (Divide each side by negative 2)

                                (Cancel common terms)

                                   (Cancel common signs)

The x-intercept is

The co-ordinate point is

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

1.     Draw a coordinate plane.

2.     Plot the points.

3.     Draw a line through these points.

For the graph using  x-intercept is and y-intercept is 1 is
