Hi,
\n" ); document.write( "Note: to determine the slope , solve for y in order to put the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y- intercept(the value of y when the line passes thru the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x-2y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 4 = 2y
\n" ); document.write( "(3/2)x + 2 = y
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y = (3/2)x + 2
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (3/2) The positve slope tells us the line slopes to the right
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "As y varies by 3, x varies in the same direction by 2
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept is 2 (0,2) a point on the line
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(0, 2) and (2,5) and (-2,-1) are points on the line\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
