document.write( "Note: The standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line: y = mx + b  
\n" );
document.write( "where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.  in this ex m = -4
\n" );
document.write( "y = -4x + b  using ordered pair Pt(8,9) to solve for b
\n" );
document.write( "9 = -32 + b
\n" );
document.write( "41 = b  y = -4x + 41
\n" );
