5 x + -1 y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope of this line
\n" ); document.write( "make y the subject
\n" ); document.write( "-1 y = -5 x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by -1
\n" ); document.write( " y = 5 x -4
\n" ); document.write( "Compare this equation with y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "slope m = 5
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "m= 5 ,point ( -2 , 0 )
\n" ); document.write( "Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in
\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "0 = -10.00 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b= 10
\n" ); document.write( "m= 5
\n" ); document.write( "Plug value of the slope and b in y = mx +b
\n" ); document.write( "The required equation is y = 5 x + 10
\n" ); document.write( " y = 5 x + 10 \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-5x+y=10
