Question

What would this look like on a graph?

x + 4y = 8

Answer 1

it looks like a line that has a negative slope. if you have a graphing calculator just solve for x and put in the equation:

basically:

1) x + 4y = 8

2) 4y = 8-x

3) y = (8-x)/4

just plug that in your graphing calculator and you'll get the line you're looking for or your could just graph it with graph paper and pencil.  

Answer 2

it will a straight line sloping towards the x axis

coordinates : (4,1) ; (0,2) ; (-4,3)

Answer 3

staright line making an angle of tan inverse of 1/4 with x axis in 4th quadrant

Answer 4

This will look like a straight line making an angle of arctan(-1/4) with the x - axis and passing through (0,2).
