You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Isolate the y variable
y + 6 = x + 4
y+%2B+cross%286%29+-+cross%286%29+=+x+%2B+4+-+highlight%286%29
y = x + 4 - 6
highlight_green%28y+=+x+-+2%29
...
slope of 1
...
y intercept is -2
Plot(0, -2)
...
x intercept is where y = 0, so
0 = x-2
x = 2
Plot(2,0)
...
Draw a line through the intercepts
