The first thing you want to do is solve the equation for y so it is in slope-intercept form.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B2y=10\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B2y-x=10-x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2y=-x%2B10\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282y%29%2F2=%28-x%2B10%29%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=%28-1%2F2%29x%2B5\"$
\n" ); document.write( "now by looking at this equation, we know the slope is-1/2 and the y-int is (0,5).
\n" ); document.write( " $\"graph%28500%2C500%2C-20%2C20%2C-20%2C20%2C%28-1%2F2%29x%2B5%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
