A line with a slope of -3/4 that passes through (12,-4).\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "one way is to use the point slope form y - y1 = m(x- x1)
\n" ); document.write( "In this problem x1=12, y1=-4, m=-3/4
\n" ); document.write( "hence
\n" ); document.write( "y - (-4) = \"-3%2F4\"(x - 12)
\n" ); document.write( " y1 becomes a +4; distribute the -3/4; becomes a +9
\n" ); document.write( "y + 4 = \"-3%2F4\"x + 9
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"-3%2F4\"x + 9 - 4
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"-3%2F4\"x + 5 is the equation for this line
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "looks like this
