You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph y=5x - 2
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Plot a couple of points and draw a line thru them:
\n" ); document.write( "If x = 0, y = 5*0-2 = -2
\n" ); document.write( "If x = 1, y = 5*1-2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "This gives you the points (0,-2) and (1,3)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Plot them on an x/y coordinate system.
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the line thru them:
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C5x-2%29\"
