What is the Equation of the line containing (2,-5)and (6,3)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (3--5)/(6-2) = 8/4 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Form: y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "3 = 2*6 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -9
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x-9
