2x-7+3y=9+2y+8
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 2y from both sides
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2x -7 +y = 9+8
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Add 7 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2x + y = 17+7 = 24
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 2x from both sides
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y = -2x +24
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The equation now is in slope-intercept form: y = mx+b
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept = (0,24)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept = (12,0)
