Explanation goes here. We are trying to find equation y=ax+b. The value of slope (a) is already given to us. We need to find b. If a point (<IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=x%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"x%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >, <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=y%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"y%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >) lies on the line, it means that it satisfies the equation of the line. So, our equation holds for (<IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=x%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"x%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >, <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=y%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"y%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >): <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=y%5B1%5D+=+a%2Ax%5B1%5D%2Bb ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"y%5B1%5D+=+a%2Ax%5B1%5D%2Bb\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" > Here, we know a, <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=x%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"x%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >, and <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=y%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"y%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >, and do not know b. It is easy to find out: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=b=y%5B1%5D-a%2Ax%5B1%5D ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"b=y%5B1%5D-a%2Ax%5B1%5D\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. So, then, the equation of the line is: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=+y=ax%2B%28y%5B1%5D-a%2Ax%5B1%5D%29+ ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"+y=ax%2B%28y%5B1%5D-a%2Ax%5B1%5D%29+\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. </I><BR>\n" );
