Find the y-intercept and the x-intercept of:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2By+=+13\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept occurs when x = 0, so substitute x = 0 and solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2%280%29%2By+=+13\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+13\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept is at (0, 13)
\n" ); document.write( "The x-intercept occurs when y = 0, so substitute y = 0 and solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2B0+=+13\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x+=+13\"$ Divide both sides by -2.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+13%2F-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+-%286.5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The x-intercept is at (-6.5, 0)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"graph%28400%2C400%2C-8%2C8%2C-5%2C15%2C2x%2B13%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
