2x + y =5
\n" ); document.write( "Plot 2 points:
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = 5
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then x = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Plot (0,5) and (5/2,0) and draw a line thru them.
\n" ); document.write( "=======================================================
\n" ); document.write( "x-y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Plot 2 points:
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Plot (0,-4) and (4,0) and draw a line thru them.
