Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

3x -4y = 12

Explanation:

The x- and y-intercepts are easily read from the graph as 4 and -3, respectively. Then the intercept form of the equation of the line is ...

x/(x-intercept) +y/(y-intercept) = 1

x/4 +y/(-3) = 1

Multiplying by 12 will clear the fractions and give the standard form:

3x -4y = 12
