Hi,
\n" ); document.write( "*Note solve for y
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-2/5)x
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is in general y = mx + b where m is the slope and b the y-intercept ( the value of y where the line crosses the y-axis: thus (0,b) is a point on the line) here b = 0
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "For this line (0,0) is a point on the line
\n" ); document.write( "the slope is negative (slants to the left)
\n" ); document.write( "As y decreases by 2, x increases by 5 or as y increases by 2, x decreases by 5
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
