x1 y1 x2 y2
\n" ); document.write( "-4 6 2 -6
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
\n" ); document.write( "( -6 - 6 )/( 2 - -4 )
\n" ); document.write( "( -12 / 6 )
\n" ); document.write( "m= -2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Plug value of the slope and point ( -4 , 6 ) in
\n" ); document.write( "Y = m x + b
\n" ); document.write( "6.00 = 8 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b= 6 - 8
\n" ); document.write( "b= -2
\n" ); document.write( "So the equation will be
