A line passes through (–7, –5) and (–5, 4).Write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Slope m = diffy/diffx
\n" ); document.write( "m = 9/2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "y - y1 = m*(x - x1) where (x1,y1) is either point.
\n" ); document.write( "Rewrite into any form.
\n" ); document.write( "================
\n" ); document.write( "Or,
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "| x  y 1|\r\n" );
document.write( "|-7 -5 1| = 0\r\n" );
document.write( "|-5  4 1|\r\n" );
document.write( "---\r\n" );
document.write( "x*(-5-4) - y*(-7+5) + (-28-25) = 0\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "-9x + 2y - 53 = 0
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
