#"see explanation"#

Explanation:

#"one way is to find the intercepts, that is where the graph"#
#"crosses the x and y axes"#

#• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"#

#• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"#

#x=0toy=0-2=-2larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"#

#y=0to4x-2=0tox=1/2larrcolor(red)" x-intercept"#

#"plot " (0,-2),(1/2,0)#

#"and draw a straight line through them"#
