Write an equation for each line described below.
\n" ); document.write( "a) passes through (-1,1) with slope -1
\n" ); document.write( "b) has slope -5/7 and y-intercept 6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "PLEASE HELP ME
\n" ); document.write( "

a) y = mx + b
\n" );
document.write( "1 = - 1(- 1) + b ------- Substituting - 1 for m, and (- 1, 1) for (x, y)
\n" );
document.write( "1 = 1 + b
\n" );
document.write( "1 - 1 = b_____0 = b
\n" );
document.write( "Equation needed: \r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "b) y = mx + b
\n" );
document.write( "Equation needed:  ------- Substituting  for m, and 6 for b \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
