Question

Please help!!!!!! Which is the equation of the line passing through (0, 4) and (8, 0)?

Answer 1

The slope m is given by:
m = (4 - 0)/(0 - 8) = -(1/2)
When x = 0, y = 4. Therefore the y-intercept is 4.
The equation of the line is:
y = -(x/2) + 4

Answer 2

the equation would be y= -8x + 4
