Assuming that you meant "x - 4y = 20", the x-intercept is x=20, and the y-intercept is y=-5.

How do you determine whether a point is on a given line or not?
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. If the equation is still valid then the point is on the line; if not then it is not.

What is the slope of the line given by the equation y equals 11.2x?
Well, to answer your question,
How do I write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line Write the answer in slope-intercept form?
The standard equation for a straight line is y = mx + c. Let this be the equation of the original line. Note that m and c are known values. Let the given point coordinates be (a,b)Two straight lines are perpendicular if the product of their gradients (slopes) is -1.The slope (m1) of the perpendicular line is therefore m1 = -1/mWhen y = b then x = a so the equation for the perpendicular line is y = m1x + d, and substituting gives : b = -a/m + d and this will enable d to be calculated.NOTE : In the absence of information for the equation of the original line and the coordinates of the given point then this is a general rather than a specific answer.
What is the equation of the line with the given slope 7 y-intercept -8?
From the given information the straight line equation is: y = 7x-8
Given the equation of a line how is the slope calculated?
If the equation of a line is in the form ax + by + c = 0 then the slope of the line will be -a/b.
Writing an equation given a slope and a point?
If the slope m is given at a point (xo, yo) of a line, then the equation of the line is given by: y - yo = m(x - xo)
How do you determine whether a point is on a given line or not?
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. If the equation is still valid then the point is on the line; if not then it is not.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y3.8x?
The equation provided does not have a defined slope. The slope of a line is determined by the coefficient of the x-term in the equation, but there is none in the given equation.
The line given by the equation y equals -8x is perpendicular to what line?
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
What is an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line (-7,3); x=4
What points are on the line given by the equation y -3x 5?
But it's not an equation because there is no equal sign and no points are given.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y-7x?
y - 7x is not an equation but an expression. It cannot, therefore, define a line.
How do write an equation of a line when given the slope a point of the line?
if a line has a slope of -2 and a point on the line has coordinates of (3, -5) write an equation for the line in point slope form
What is the x-intercept of the line given by the equation?
I accidently do not finish the equation part. I will put it up
How can you find the coordinates of two lines mathematically given the equation of both?
Subtract the equation of one line from the equation of the other
