Graph the points and draw the line between them,
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "You can read the slope from the line.
\n" ); document.write( "To go from one point to the other, move 4 units in the x, 2 units in the y.
\n" ); document.write( "Slope is change in y over change in x.
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=2%2F4=1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "or you can solve it algebraically.
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29=%28-2-0%29%2F%28-1-3%29=-2%2F-4=1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then use the slope-intercept form of a line, \"y=%281%2F2%29x%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use either point to solve for \"b\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"0=%281%2F2%29%283%29%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b=-3%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=%281%2F2%29x-3%2F2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
