\n" ); document.write( "We know Slope-Intercept Form follows eqn-----> \"y=mx%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "where\"system%28m=slope%2C+b=yIntercept%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "As given, \"y=%281%2F2%29x%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "The \"Slope=m=1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"yIntercept=3\"
\n" ); document.write( "In order to find out the x & y intercepts of the eqn,
\n" ); document.write( "let \"f%28y%29=0\":
\n" ); document.write( "\"0=%281%2F2%29x%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x=-3\"--->\"x=2%2A-3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=-6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Also, let \"f%28x%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%281%2F2%290%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=3%29\", as shown already \"b\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, when we graph it;
\n" ); document.write( "Now, for the \"Slope=m=1%2F2=Rise%2FRun\"
\n" ); document.write( "On the \"Rise\", meaning \"up\" or \"down\" on the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "The \"Run\" meaning \"left\" or \"right\" of the x-axis. In this case, from y-intercept of \"(0,3)\", next point will be \"1\" up or down and \"2\" left or right.
\n" ); document.write( "Do the same also for the x-intercept of (-6,0)
