HI,
\n" ); document.write( "*Note: In General,the equation for a line in the slop-intercept form is:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y where the line crosses the y-axis)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore with m =5
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5x + b (positive slope tells us the line slants to the right)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting Pt(0,-3)
\n" ); document.write( "-3 = b
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "equation of the line is
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5x -3
\n" ); document.write( "Note: slope (5/1) tells us the as y increases by 5, x increases by 1
