Question

Draw the graph for the given linear equation \[y + 8 = 0\]?

Answer 1

Hint: When the equation given is linear i.e. the maximum power is one, then the equation is known as linear equation. Here the given equation is for \[y\] . So you have to find some coordinates for sketching the graph, for any linear graph at least two coordinates are needed.

Complete step-by-step answer:
For the given equation \[y + 8 = 0\]
Here only one variable is given in the question and when we solve the equation by putting variable one side and the number part on other side then what we get is:
\[
  y + 8 = 0 \\
  y = ( - 8) \;
 \]
Here we see that the variable “y” is purely equal to “(-8)” that means “y” value is constant and equals to “(-8)”. For such an equation a linear line is drawn showing that for any value of the given variable we get the fixed constant value.
Graph for “x” and “y” axis: The obtained graph is a straight line.

Note: In linear graph you have to find any two coordinates of the respective axis. . In such a question the assumption of one coordinate is up to you so it's recommended to always take a point as \[0\]. You can also satisfy these points in the equation to check if the points are correct or not.
