Write an equation of a like that has the same y intercept as 5y-2x=-5
\n" ); document.write( "5y - 2x = -5
\n" ); document.write( "5y = 2x - 5
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 5
\n" ); document.write( "y = $\"2%2F5\"$ x - 1
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept =-1
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " and x intercept as 3x+4y=-12
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 4y = -12
\n" ); document.write( "4y = - 3x - 12
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 4
\n" ); document.write( "y = $\"-3%2F4\"$ x - 3
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "y = -.75x - 3
\n" ); document.write( "x intercept occurs when y = 0.
\n" ); document.write( "-.75x - 3 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "-.75x = 3
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by .75
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 is the x intercept
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the equation where the x intercept is 4 and y intercept is -1
\n" ); document.write( "Using the form y = mx + b; x=4, b=-1, find m
\n" ); document.write( "4m - 1 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "4m = 1
\n" ); document.write( "m = $\"1%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
