Algebra.Com's Answer #202968 by oberobic(2304)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, get it in y = mx+b format so that you can graph it. \n" ); document.write( "5x + 4y = 20 \n" ); document.write( "subtract 5x from both sides \n" ); document.write( "4y = -5x + 20 \n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 4 \n" ); document.write( "y = -5/4x + 5 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "x = 0, y = 5 results in the point (0,5) \n" ); document.write( "x = 4, y = 0 results in the point (4,0) \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "with two points you can graph a straight line \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " |
