Algebra.Com's Answer #529238 by Alan3354(69443) You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=-3x-12 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I have to have two pairs in order to graph.. x & y intercept .. \n" ); document.write( "(x,y) , (x,y) \n" ); document.write( "====================== \n" ); document.write( "It's a straight line, so 2 points are needed. \n" ); document.write( "Each pair is a point. \n" ); document.write( "y=-3x-12 \n" ); document.write( "Pick a value for x and find y \n" ); document.write( "x = 0, y = -12 --> (0,-12) \n" ); document.write( "x = 2, y = -18 --> (2,-18) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Plot the 2 points, draw a line thru them. \n" ); document.write( "--------- \n" ); document.write( "(0,-12) is the y-intercept \n" ); document.write( "If you want the x-intercept, use y=0 and find x \n" ); document.write( "y=-3x-12 \n" ); document.write( "0=-3x-12 \n" ); document.write( "x = -4 --> (-4,0) \n" ); document.write( "---------- \n" ); document.write( "All 3 points are on the straight line. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
