You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You are in the right method (slope formula):
\n" ); document.write( "2 = 6/(5-r)
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by (5 - r)
\n" ); document.write( "2(5 - r) = 6
\n" ); document.write( "10 - 2r = 6
\n" ); document.write( "-2r = 6 -10
\n" ); document.write( "-2r = -4
\n" ); document.write( "r = -4/-2
\n" ); document.write( "r = 2
\n" ); document.write( "John10:) \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
