Question

question drag the red and blue dots along the x - axis and y - axis to graph (4x - 2y = 18).

Explanation:

Step1: Find x-intercept (y=0)

Substitute \( y = 0 \) into \( 4x - 2y = 18 \):
\( 4x - 2(0) = 18 \)
\( 4x = 18 \)
\( x = \frac{18}{4} = 4.5 \)
So x-intercept is \( (4.5, 0) \).

Step2: Find y-intercept (x=0)

Substitute \( x = 0 \) into \( 4x - 2y = 18 \):
\( 4(0) - 2y = 18 \)
\( -2y = 18 \)
\( y = \frac{18}{-2} = -9 \)
So y-intercept is \( (0, -9) \).

Answer:

Drag the blue dot (x - intercept) to \( (4.5, 0) \) and the red dot (y - intercept) to \( (0, -9) \) on the coordinate axes.
