find an equation in standard form of the line containing the give points\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(0,0),(5,-2)
\n" ); document.write( "first we need to find the slope;
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%280-%28-2%29%29%2F%280-5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=2%2F-5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Choose either of the points given and substitute for x, y and m in the slope intercept equation.
\n" ); document.write( "slope-intercept equation;
\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2=%28-2%2F5%29%285%29%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "-2=-2+b
\n" ); document.write( "b=0
\n" ); document.write( "so the equation would be;
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%28-2%2F5%29x%2B0\"
\n" ); document.write( "or \"y=%28-2%2F5%29x\"
\n" ); document.write( ":)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
