The \"point-slope\" form is:
\n" ); document.write( "y - y1 = m(x - x1)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So, given:
\n" ); document.write( "slope=-2/3 and passes through (-3, -5)
\n" ); document.write( "we plug it in to:
\n" ); document.write( "y - y1 = m(x - x1)
\n" ); document.write( "y - (-5) = (-2/3)(x - (-3))
\n" ); document.write( "y + 5 = (-2/3)(x + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "y + 5 = (-2/3)x + (-2/3)3
\n" ); document.write( "y + 5 = (-2/3)x - 2
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-2/3)x - 7 (this is what they're looking for)
\n" ); document.write( "The above is the \"slope-intercept\" form of the line\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
