You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph using the intercept method: 5x – y = 5.
\n" ); document.write( "To find the x intercept, let y=0 and solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "5x-0=5
\n" ); document.write( "5x=5
\n" ); document.write( "5x/5=5/5
\n" ); document.write( "x=1
\n" ); document.write( "Put a point on (1,0) This is where the line will cross the x axis.
\n" ); document.write( "To find the y intercept, let x=0 and solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( "5(0)-y=5
\n" ); document.write( "0-y=5
\n" ); document.write( "-y=5
\n" ); document.write( "-1(-y)=-1(5)
\n" ); document.write( "y=-5
\n" ); document.write( "Put a point on (0,-5). This is the place where the line will cross the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "Connect the points and you should have a line that looks like this:
