You can put this solution on YOUR website!
This is a rather simple problem once you understand what it is asking.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the y-intercept of a point is the y value when x=0
\n" ); document.write( "the x-intercept of a point is the x value when y=0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x-y=3
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept:
\n" ); document.write( "when y=0 x=?
\n" ); document.write( "substitute 0 for y
\n" ); document.write( "x- y =3
\n" ); document.write( "x-(0)=3 or x=3
\n" ); document.write( "therefore the x-intercept of x-y=3 is the point (3,0)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "when x=0 y=?
\n" ); document.write( "substitute 0 for x
\n" ); document.write( " x -y=3
\n" ); document.write( "(0)-y=3 or -y=3
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by -1 and you get y=-3
\n" ); document.write( "therefore the y-intercept of x-y=3 is the point (0,-3)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Graph these two points and then draw a straight line between them and this is your graph.\r
