You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You must get $\"y\"$ alone on the left side. To do this,
\n" ); document.write( "subtract $\"x\"$ from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+%2B+x+=+-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-x+=+-x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+-x+-+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "This is the equation you must plot
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+graph%28+600%2C+600%2C+-10%2C+2%2C+-10%2C+2%2C+-x+-+8%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept occurs where $\"x+=+0\"$ . Just make
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=0\"$ in the equation
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+0+-+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+-8\"$ You can see from the graph that this is
\n" ); document.write( "where the line intercepts the y-axis \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
