document.write( "6y+5x=-18 
\n" );
document.write( "solving for y to generate the slope-intercept form y = mx + b
\n" );
document.write( "y = -(5/6)x - 3  negative slope, line slants to the left
\n" );
document.write( "Line crosses the y axis when y has a value of -3.  Pt(0,-3) the y intercept
\n" );
document.write( "slope verifies (-6,2) is a point on the line. (y increasing by 5, x decreasing by 6)
\n" );
