\n" ); document.write( "A line passes through the point(x,y)=(-4,8)and has a slope of -7 .
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Via Slope-Intercept Form: \"y=mx%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8=%28-7%29%28-4%29%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8=28%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b=8-28=-20\", Y-Intercept
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, the line eqn follows---->\"highlight%28y=-7x-20%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Std Form---->\"highlight%287x%2By%2B20=0%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "We see the graph,
\n" ); document.write( "
