solve the system of equations by graphing
\n" ); document.write( "6x-8y = 40
\n" ); document.write( "also, below that is another equation for the y/x intercepts
\n" ); document.write( "6x=8y+40
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "The graph is a straight line, so only 2 points are needed.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the equation for x or y.
\n" ); document.write( "6x-8y = 40
\n" ); document.write( "8y = 6x-40
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3x/4 - 5
\n" ); document.write( "Pick values for x and find y
\n" ); document.write( "x....y
\n" ); document.write( "0....-5 --> (0,-5)
\n" ); document.write( "4....-2 --> (4,-2)
\n" ); document.write( "Draw a line thru the 2 points.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "That's the same eqn
\n" ); document.write( "To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and v.v.
\n" ); document.write( "(0,-5) y-int
\n" ); document.write( "(20/3,0) x-int\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
