You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You wish to graph
\n" ); document.write( "C = 10x + 40
\n" ); document.write( "Notice that if x = 0, then C = 40
\n" ); document.write( "That's your first point...(0, 40)
\n" ); document.write( "Now what if x = 1?
\n" ); document.write( "Well, then C = 50
\n" ); document.write( "That's your next point...(1, 50)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2? C = ?
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3? C = ?
\n" ); document.write( "Connect them and you're done... \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
