Try point-slope equation form for a line.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "formula for slope, $\"m=%28y-v%29%2F%28x-u%29\"$ using some general point (x,y) and some specific point, (u,v). This is equivalent to $\"m%28x-u%29=y-v\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight_green%28y-v=m%28x-u%29%29\"$ , the Point-Slope Form.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Your values give you $\"highlight%28y-6=-3%28x%2B2%29%29\"$ which you can transform into any form needed. \n" ); document.write( "
