\n" ); document.write( "what is the line of the slope when -3/4 passes through (5, -2)

\n" ); document.write( "I will guess that the question is supposed to be

\n" ); document.write( "what is the equation of the line with slope -3/4 that passes through (5,-2)

\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+mx%2Bb\"

\n" ); document.write( "The slope m is given as -3/4:

\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%28-3%2F4%29x%2Bb\"

\n" ); document.write( "Use the coordinates of the given point on the line (x,y) = (5,-2) to solve for b:

\n" ); document.write( "\"-2+=+%28-3%2F4%295%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2+=+-15%2F4%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"7%2F4+=+b\"

\n" ); document.write( "The equation is

\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%28-3%2F4%29x%2B7%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "
