\n" );
document.write( "the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line is 
\n" );
document.write( "  where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
\n" );
document.write( "Line parallel to y = 5x - 9 and goes through (2,1) 
\n" );
document.write( "  m = 5 for this line
\n" );
document.write( "New Line:  Parallel Lines have same slope
\n" );
document.write( "   |Using P(2,1)to solve for b

document.write( "      -9 = b
