How do you find the slope and intercept of #4x+8y = -64 #?

1 Answer

Jan 12, 2016

If #Ax+By+C=0#
Then #Slope=-A/B#, x-intercept#=-C/A# and y-intercept#=-C/B#.

#4x+8y=-64#
#implies 4x+8y+64=0#
#implies x+2y+16=0#

Here #A=1, B=2 and C=16#

#implies Slope=-1/2#, x-intercept#=-16/1=-16# and y-intercept#=-16/2=-8#

#implies Slope=-1/2#, x-intercept#=-16# and y-intercept#=-8#
