see explanation below

Explanation:

$x + 4 y = - 8$ $x + 4y = -8$

check $x -$ $x-$ intercept when $y = 0$ $y =0$
$x + 4 (0) = - 8$ $x + 4(0) = -8$
$x = - 8$ $x = -8$
therefore, $x -$ $x-$ intercept at $(- 8, 0)$ $(-8,0)$

check $y -$ $y-$ intercept, when $x = 0$ $x =0$
$0 + 4 y = - 8$ $0 + 4y = -8$
$4 y = - 8$ $4y = -8$
$y = - \frac{8}{4} = - 2$ $y = -8/4 = -2$
therefore, $y -$ $y-$ intercept at $(0, - 2)$ $(0, -2)$

mark these 2 points of intercept and make a straight line through these 2 points.
