Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc

Equation $\"2+x+%2B+3+y+=+4\"$ describes a sloping line. For any
\n" ); document.write( " equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is $\"-a%2Fb+=+-2%2F3\"$ .

X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. 4/2 = 2.
Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 4/3 = 1.33333333333333.
Slope is -2/3 = -0.666666666666667.
Equation in slope-intercept form: y=-0.666666666666667*x+1.33333333333333.
