Solved by pluggable solver: FIND EQUATION of straight line given 2 points
hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (0, -3) and (x2, y2) = (5, 0).
\n" ); document.write( " Slope a is \"a+=+%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29+=+%280--3%29%2F%285-0%29+=+0.6\".
\n" ); document.write( " Intercept is found from equation \"a%2Ax%5B1%5D%2Bb+=+y%5B1%5D\", or \"0.6%2A0+%2Bb+=+-3\". From that,
\n" ); document.write( " intercept b is \"b=y%5B1%5D-a%2Ax%5B1%5D\", or \"b=-3-0.6%2A0+=+-3\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " y=(0.6)x + (-3)
