8x + y = -8
For this case what you should do is see the intersections with each of the axes and then join the ordered pairs.
We have then:
For the x axis:
y = 0
Substituting in the equation:
8x + (0) = - 8
8x = -8
x = -1
For the y axis:
x = 0
Substituting in the equation:
8 (0) + y = -8
0 + y = -8
y = -8
We graph the ordered pairs:
(x1, y1) = (- 1, 0)
(x2, y2) = (0, -8)
Answer:
See attached graph.
