Solve the equation for y:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"18-y-4x=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add -18 to both sides:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-y+-+4x+=+-18\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add 4x to both sides:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-y+=+4x+-+18\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by -1:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+-4x+%2B+18\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The slope is then the coefficient on the x term, namely -4, and the y-intercept is the value of the constant term, namely 18, meaning that the line intercepts the y-axis at the point (0, 18).\r
