Algebra.Com's Answer #253371 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! -x + 6y = -12 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = -2 giving you point(0,-2) \n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then x = 6 giving you point (6,0) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Plot those two points and draw a line thru them. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "======================== \n" ); document.write( "x + 6y = 12 \n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = 2 giving you point (0,2) \n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then x = 12 giving you point(12,0) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Plot those two points and draw a line thru them. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "============ \n" ); document.write( "Find the intersection of the two lines: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "============ \n" ); document.write( "Looks like (12,0) \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------ \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
