Step 1
1 of 4

Find a few points on the first line. First, express y by subtracting x from both sides.

x+2y(x)=4(x)x+2y-(x)=4-(x)

2y=4x2y=4-x

Then, divide by 2.

y=212xy=2-\frac{1}{2}x

Choose a few x-points and include them back to the equation to solve for y. → forx=0   y=2\quad\text{for}\quad x=0 \quad\quad\text{ }\text{ }\ y=2forx=4   y=0\quad\text{for}\quad x=4 \quad\quad\text{ }\text{ }\ y=0
