You can put this solution on YOUR website!
POINT-INTERCEPT FORM = y= mx+ b
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "If the line is parallel to y = -3x + 9, then the lines have THE SAME slope. In this case, the slope is m= -3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "To find the equation of the line, you need to use:
\n" ); document.write( "POINT-SLOPE FORM = Y- y = m(X -x)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The given point for which the line passes through is P(5, -3)
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of the line is m = -3
\n" ); document.write( "Then the equation of the line is given by
\n" ); document.write( "Y - (-3) = -3 (X - (5) ---> y + 3 = -3(X -5)
\n" ); document.write( "If they ask you to put it in point- intercept for, then you just have to solve for 'y'
\n" ); document.write( "...\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y= -3X + 12 <--
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
