plot the points (-3, -5) and (8, 6)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "slope = 11/11=1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "6=1*8+b
\n" ); document.write( "b=-2
\n" ); document.write( "y=x-2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x intercept = 2
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept =-2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
