Find an equation of the line having the
\n" ); document.write( "given slope and containing the given point.
\n" ); document.write( "m=4/5, (2,-3)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Form y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute and solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "-3 = (4/5)(2) + b
\n" ); document.write( "-3 = (8/5) + b
\n" ); document.write( "(-15/5)-(8/5) = b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -(23/5)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "The equation of the line is y = (4/5)x -(23/5)
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------
