You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=2+2^(x)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the y-intercept, substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( "y=2+2^(0)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Any number raised to the power of 0 is 1.
\n" ); document.write( "y=2+1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the equation.
\n" ); document.write( "y=3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "These are the x and y intercepts of the equation y=2+2^(x).
\n" ); document.write( " y=3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It crosses the y intercept at 0,3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To graph this equation you must also solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "The x intercept is 1,0\r
