8x - 4y = 24 divide by 4 both sides
2x - y = 6
Let y = 0,
2x = 6
x = 3 so the x-intercept point is (3, 0)
Let x = 0,
-y = 6
y = -6 so the y-intercept point is (0, -6)

If there is no y, then the equation is of the form x = c where c is some constant value. And so the line intercepts the x axis at (c,0).
Slope: -1 intercepts: (0,1000),(1000,0)
If it's a straight line, then that's all you need. Find the 'x' and 'y' intercepts,lay your ruler down between the two points, and draw your line.
so you can find the solution for the x-values. the x-intercepts are when the graph crosses the x-axis
Your x and y intercepts give you two points on the line of the graph. Use these two points in the slope equation m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), and that gives you the slope.
