Graph the equation. Plot at least three points for the graph.
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 5y = -20
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then 5y=-20 ; y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then 3x=-20 ; x = -20/3
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 5, then 15 + 5y = -20 ; 5y = -35; y = -7
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "That gives you points: (0,-4),(-20/3,-0),(5,-7)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Plot those three points and draw a line thru them.
