The coefficients for x and y would be the same as in the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4x%2B5y%2Br=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x=-5y-r\"
\n" ); document.write( "x intercept for y=0.
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x=-5%2A0-r\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x=0-r\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=-r%2F4\"------the x-intercept, and you want this to be 5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-r%2F4=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28r=-5%2F4%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The equation in the form you started with would be \"highlight%284x%2B5y-5%2F4=0%29\".
