You can put this solution on YOUR website!
What does the point (-10,8) have to do with the line 7x-5y=2??
\n" ); document.write( "You can convert the line to slope intercept form,
\n" ); document.write( "\"7x-5y=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5y=7x-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%287%2F5%29x-2%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "I'm not sure where 14 comes into it?
\n" ); document.write( "Please repost if this is not what you were looking for.
