document.write( "Using 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.  
\n" );
document.write( "  4y + 3x = -4     |solving for y to put into slope-intercept form
\n" );
document.write( "      y = -(3/4)x - 1
\n" );
document.write( "  y-intercept is (0,-1) slope of the line m = -(3/4) line slants to left m < 0
\n" );
document.write( "Note: slope tells us as y value changes by 3, x value changes by 4 in the opposite direction
