5. Standard Form
Sign In
Substitute 0 for one variable and solve. Then, repeat for the other and graph.
We will graph this equation by finding and plotting its intercepts. Then, we will connect them with a line. To find the x- and y-intercepts, we will need to substitute 0 for one variable and solve. After that, repeat for the other variable.
y= 0
Zero Property of Multiplication
.LHS /5.=.RHS /5.
An x-intercept of 4 means that the graph passes through the x-axis at the point ( 4,0).
x= 0
Zero Property of Multiplication
.LHS /4.=.RHS /4.
We can now graph the equation by plotting the intercepts and connecting them with a line.
