Describe how you can use the equations y=5x and y=3x+100 to find when the two points of the equations will meet on the graph:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x and y:
\n" ); document.write( "substitute 5x for y in the 2nd equation, find x:
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 3x + 100
\n" ); document.write( "5x - 3x = 100
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 100
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"100%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = 50
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find y
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5x
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5(50)
\n" ); document.write( "y = 250
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "graphs will meet at x/y coordinates: 50,250 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
