document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "the given coordinates of the point  x= 5,  y= 1  into left side of the equation and calculate  the value  of the expression\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    3*5 - 2*1 = 13.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the equation of the parallel line is  \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    3x - 2y = 13.      ANSWER\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So you keep the left part of the equation \"as is\" and replace the right side constant by the new value.\r\n" );
