Mathematics 10 — Exercise 2.2 · Q1 (i)

Full question

Draw the graph of the following linear equation and find its points of intersection with the x-axis and the y-axis.

Step-by-step solution

1. Rewrite the line as y = f(x).

   $$y=8-x$$

2. For the x-axis put y = 0 and solve. For the y-axis put x = 0.

   $$(8-x=0,y=8)$$

3. Plot the two intercept points and draw the straight line through them.

   $$((8,0),(0,8))$$

Answer

The final answer is shown below.
