Put
\n" ); document.write( "4x-5y=2
\n" ); document.write( "into the \"slope-point\" form of
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "m is the slope
\n" ); document.write( "b is the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "4x-5y=2
\n" ); document.write( "-5y = -4x+2
\n" ); document.write( "5y = 4x-2
\n" ); document.write( "y = (4/5)x - 2/5
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, the slope is 4/5 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
