SLOPE=(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
\n" ); document.write( "SLOPE=(-2-3)/(4+1)
\n" ); document.write( "SLOPE=-5/5=-1
\n" ); document.write( "NOW REPLACE THE X & Y TERMS WITH -1 & 3 & SOLVE FOR THEY INTERCEPT b
\n" ); document.write( "Y=mX+b
\n" ); document.write( "3=-1*-1+b
\n" ); document.write( "3=1+b
\n" ); document.write( "b=3-1
\n" ); document.write( "b=2 THE Y INTERCEPT.
\n" ); document.write( "Y=-X+2 IS THE LINE EQUATION.
