Putting \"+5x+-7y=3+\" into standards form gives
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7y=5x-3+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+y=%285%2F7%29x-3%2F7+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so the line has gradient \"+5%2F7+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The equation of a line with gradient \"+m+\" passing through \"+x%5B1%5D%2Cy%5B1%5D+\" satisfies the equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"+y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "So a line passing through the point (2,5) with gradient \"+5%2F7+\" satisfies the equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+y-5=%285%2F7%29%28x-2%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7y-35=%285%29%28x-2%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7y-35=5x-10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7y-35=5x-10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7y-5x-25=0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
