Question

Plot the line for the equation on the graph. y−4=−14(x−5)

Answer 1

y-4 = -14(x-5)
y-4 = -14x + 70
-14x-y = -4-70
-1(14x+y) = -1(4+70)
-1 gets caancelled on both sides.
so, 14x+y = 74
now to form the points.
Take x as 0
then, 14x0+y = 74
y=74
So, the first point on the graph is (0,74)
Now take y as -10
Then, 14x+(-10) = 74
Now, 14x = 74+10
14x=84
x = 84/14
x = 6
so, the second point is (6,-10)
now connect these two points, (0,74) and (6,-10) and you got the line for the above equation. Similarly, we can get other points like this but would be a part of the same line.
