\n" ); document.write( " this is a general slope of a line: y - y' = m( x-x') where m is the slope of the line and (x', y') is a point of a line.
\n" ); document.write( " for this equation , we already know (x', y') , it is (2, -3)
\n" ); document.write( "now let's find m.
\n" ); document.write( " we know also that the slope of the line we are looking for is the same as the slope of 3x-y+4=0. so m=3 because the slope of 3x-y+4=0 is 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "thus, y-(-3) = 3(x-2) --> y+3 = 3x -6
\n" ); document.write( " --> y+3 - y-3 = 3x -6 -y -3
\n" ); document.write( " --> 0 = 3x -y -9\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " so the equation of that line is 3x - y - 9 =0
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
