The first line, $\"y=2x%2B3\"$ , has a y-intercept of y=3.
\n" ); document.write( "The second line, using the point-slope form, is,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-2=-1%28x-4%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y-2=-x%2B4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-x%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The second line's y-intercept is y=6.
\n" ); document.write( "The difference in y-interecept, the distance, is 3.
