y-int (0,y)
\n" ); document.write( "T = 3*0 - 6 = -6
\n" ); document.write( "This tells us that after 0 minutes, the frozen orange juice is -6 degrees Celsius.
\n" ); document.write( "x-int (x,0)
\n" ); document.write( "T + 6 = 3x
\n" ); document.write( "(T + 6)/3 = x
\n" ); document.write( "(0 + 6)/3 = x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "This tells us that after 2 minutes, the frozen orange juice is at 0 degrees Celsius.
