document.write( "The y-intercept of this equation is 4. This is known because when using the form, y=mx+b, 'b' is the y-intercept. From there, your slope is 5/3, (m is the slope, or the co-efficient of 'x'). Knowing this, you imply plot the y-intercept, which is (0,4). Then, take your slope to find other points, and you can make the line. Do this by using the idea of \"rise-over-run\", meaning that when a slope is a fraction, (5/3), from any point on the line, (you will use the y-intercept), you go over 5 units, and up 3 units. Doing this, your next point should be at (5,7). Connect the points and make the line.  </SPAN>\n" );
