Question

Find an equation of the line that satisfies the given conditions. x-intercept 1; y-intercept −4

Answer 1

The equation would be y = 4x - 4

Answer 2

My make an equation in the form y=my+b
You already have the y intercept, -4

Y=mx-4

And you have the two points (1,0) and (0,-4)
To find the slope (rise over run) to get from the two points you go over one up 4

So the slope is 4/1 or 4

The equation is:

Y=4x-4

Hope this helps!
