4x - 3y = 10

Here we will show you how to calculate and provide solutions to math problems related to 4x - 3y = 10.

We will start by calculating and showing you the solution for the x-intercept and y-intercept of 4x - 3y = 10.

Then, we will show you how to get the graph plot coordinates for 4x - 3y = 10 so we can illustrate it on a graph.

Finally, we will solve 4x - 3y = 10 for x and also for y, then calculate and show you the solution for the slope of 4x - 3y = 10.

Find x-intercept
The x-intercept is where the graph crosses the x-axis. To find the x-intercept, we set y₁=0 and then solve for x.

4x - 3y = 10
4x - 3(0) = 10
x₁ = 2.5 y₁ = 0

Find y-intercept
The y-intercept is where the graph crosses the y-axis. To find the y-intercept, we set x₂=0 and then solve for y.

4x - 3y = 10
4(0) - 3y = 10
y₂ = -3.333 x₂ = 0

Get Graph Plot Coordinates
Getting two graph points will allow you to make a straight line on a graph. The plot coordinate format is (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂).

Thus, we use the x-intercept and y-intercept results above to get the graph plots for 4x - 3y = 10 as follows:

(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂)
(2.5,0) and (0,-3.333)

Solve for x
To solve for x, we solve the equation so the variable x is by itself on the left side:

4x - 3y = 10
x = 0.75y + 2.5

Solve for y
To solve for y, we solve the equation so the variable y is by itself on the left side:

4x - 3y = 10
y = 1.333x - 3.333

Find slope
The slope of the line (m) is the steepness of the line. It is the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate. Simply plug in the coordinates from above and solve for m to get the slope for 4x - 3y = 10

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
m = (-3.333 - 0)/(0 - 2.5)
m = 1.333
