The line has slope -1, since it is written in slope-intercept form and x has a (-1) coefficient.
\n" ); document.write( "use point slope formula
\n" ); document.write( "y-y1=(-1)(x-x1)
\n" ); document.write( "y-6=(-1)(x+3)=-x-3
\n" ); document.write( "y=-x+3
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-x-5%2C-x%2B3%29\"
