equation of a line that passes through (-2, -1) and (-4, -3)?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (-3--1)/(-4--2) = -2/-2 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Form: y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "-1 = 1*-2 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = 1
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = x + 1
