You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Put your line into slope-intercept form $\"y=m%2Ax%2Bb\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x-2y=5\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2y=4x%2B5\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=2x%2B5%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of that line is $\"m%5B1%5D=2\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Parallel lines have identical slopes.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"m%5B1%5D=m%5B2%5D=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "You also know that y=0 at x=0
\n" ); document.write( "Use the point-slope form of a line.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-y%5Bp%5D=m%28x-x%5Bp%5D%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From above,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5Bp%5D=y%5Bp%5D=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting all the values.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-y%5Bp%5D=m%28x-x%5Bp%5D%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-0=%282%29%28x-0%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=2x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Graph them to prove out the solution.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+graph%28+300%2C+300%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+2x%2C+2x%2B5%2F2%29+\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
