CCSS.8.F.A.3

Find the x and y intercepts
4x - 5y = 40

• x intercept is 10 
  y intercept is 8

• x intercept is 10
  y intercept is 20

• x intercept is 8
  y intercept is 10

• x intercept is 10

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y +7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y+ 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• 3

• 4x

• 4

• x
