4x+y=8x=3y-15\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the x-intercept, substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "4x+(0)=8x=3(0)-15\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Remove the parentheses around the expression 0.
\n" ); document.write( "4x+0=\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Remove the 0 from the polynomial; adding or subtracting 0 does not change the value of the expression.
\n" ); document.write( "4x=\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide each term in the equation by 4.
\n" ); document.write( "(4x)/(4)=()/(4)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Simplify the left-hand side of the equation by canceling the common factors.
\n" ); document.write( "x=()/(4)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the y-intercept, substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( "4(0)+y=8(0)=3y-15\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply 4 by each term inside the parentheses.
\n" ); document.write( "0+y=\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the equation.
\n" ); document.write( "y=\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "These are the x and y intercepts of the equation 4x+y=8x=3y-15.
\n" ); document.write( "x=()/(4), y= \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
