question:write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with the given slope that contains the given point
\n" ); document.write( "slope=2
\n" ); document.write( "(2,-7)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Form y = mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "You have y=-7 when x=2, and you have m=2
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute to get:
\n" ); document.write( "-7 = 2*2 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -11
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x-11
\n" ); document.write( "================
