Points (x,y)(-1,5)
\n" ); document.write( "Slope = m = 2
\n" ); document.write( "Equation of the straight line point-slope form
\n" ); document.write( "m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
\n" ); document.write( "Put the values of m, x and y in above equation
\n" ); document.write( "2=(y-5)/(x-(-1))
\n" ); document.write( "2=(y-5)/(x+1)
\n" ); document.write( "2(x+1))=y-5
\n" ); document.write( "2x+2=y-5
\n" ); document.write( "2x=y-5-2
\n" ); document.write( "2x=y-7
\n" ); document.write( "y-7=2x
\n" ); document.write( "y=2x+7
\n" ); document.write( "Above equation is the equation of the line in standard form (y=mx+b)\r
