You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First graph the left side as its own equation \"y=3x%2B4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Graph of \"y=3x%2B4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now graph the right side as its own equation \"y=x-6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Graph of \"y=x-6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Graphing the two together, we get\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Graph of \"y=3x%2B4\" (red) \"y=x-6\" (green)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "From the graph, we can see that the two lines intersect at the point (-5,-11) where x=-5 and y=-11. So the solution to the equation \"3x%2B4=x-6\" is \"x=-5\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
