Graph y=4x+4

Problem

y=4*x+4

Solution

1. Identify the equation type as a linear equation in slope-intercept form, which is y=m*x+b

2. Determine the y-intercept by looking at the constant b Here, b=4 so the graph crosses the y-axis at the point (0,4)

3. Determine the slope by looking at the coefficient m Here, m=4 which can be written as the fraction 4/1

4. Apply the slope to find a second point. Starting from (0,4) move up 4 units and right 1 unit to reach the point (1,8)

5. Find the x-intercept by setting y=0

0=4*x+4

−4=4*x

x=−1

6. Plot the points (−1,0) (0,4) and (1,8) and draw a straight line through them to complete the graph.

Final Answer

y=4*x+4
