Use the two points and the point-slope form:
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-k=m%28x-h%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%289-4%29%2F%287-%28-2%29%29=5%2F9\"
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "pick either of the two points...
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-4=%285%2F9%29%28x-%28-2%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y-4=5x%2F9%2B10%2F9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Change to Standard Form:
\n" ); document.write( "\"9%28y-4%29=9%2A%285x%2F9%2B10%2F9%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9y-36=5x%2B10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9y-5x=10%2B36\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9y-5x=46\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-5x%2B9y=46\"
\n" ); document.write( "OR
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%285x-9y=-46%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
