Algebra.Com's Answer #17263 by venugopalramana(3286)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! LET US TAKE EQN.AS \n" ); document.write( "X+Y=1.... \n" ); document.write( "X INTERCEPT IS DISTANCE FROM ORIGIN TO POINT WHERE THE ABOVE LINE CUTS X AXIS. \n" ); document.write( "IT IS OBTAINED BY PUTTING Y =0 AND SOLVING FOR X THE EQN. \n" ); document.write( "HERE WE GET X+0=1...OR..X =1.....X INTERCEPT=1\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Y INTERCEPT IS DISTANCE FROM ORIGIN TO POINT WHERE THE ABOVE LINE CUTS Y AXIS. \n" ); document.write( "IT IS OBTAINED BY PUTTING X =0 AND SOLVING FOR Y THE EQN. \n" ); document.write( "HERE WE GET 0+Y=1...OR..Y =1.....Y INTERCEPT=1 \n" ); document.write( "TO DO GRAPHICALLY PLOT THE GRAPH AND IND THE POINTS AS ABOVE AND THEIR DISTANCE FROM ORIGIN TO GET THE ANSWER \n" ); document.write( "X=.........0..........1.........2..............3.........ETC........... \n" ); document.write( "Y=1-X......1..........0.........-1.............-2.........ETC.......... \n" ); document.write( "GRAPH WILL LOOK LIKE THIS..... \n" ); document.write( " |
