SOLUTION: graph the equation and id the y intercept ; x + 2y = 10 as far as I get is subtract the x from both sides, y=(-1/2x)+5 after that I don't know what steps are next.

Question 335178: graph the equation and id the y intercept ; x + 2y = 10 as far as I get is subtract the x from both sides, y=(-1/2x)+5 after that I don't know what steps are next. Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The easiest way to graph a line is to use the x and y intercepts since you only need two points to define a line.
To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and solve for x.
(10,0)
Plot that point.

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and solve for y.
(0,5)
Plot that point.

Now connect the points with a line that goes through both of them.
