compute x such that a straight line passing trhu (2,x)and x-2)has has a slope of -2/3
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
\n" ); document.write( "-2/3 = (-2-x)/(x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "-2 = (-6-3x)/(x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "-2x + 4 = -6 - 3x
\n" ); document.write( "x = -10\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
