document.write( "Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

document.write( " 
\n" );
document.write( "Line with slope=3/4 and y-intercept=8  then y = (3/4)x + 8
\n" );
document.write( "Line with slope=0.5 and passing through (-1,7)
\n" );
document.write( "  y = .5x + b  |using ordered pair (-1,7) to solve for b
\n" );
document.write( "  7 = -.5  b
\n" );
document.write( "  7.5 = b
\n" );
document.write( " Y = .5x + 7.5 \n" );
