FIRST YOU NEED TO FIND THE SLOPE
\n" ); document.write( "(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
\n" ); document.write( "(-3-4)/(0-3)
\n" ); document.write( "-7/-3=7/3 IS THE SLOPE (m).
\n" ); document.write( "Y=mX+b NOW REPLACE THE X & Y VALUES WITH ONE SET OF VALUES & THE SLOPE=7/3 & SOLVE FOR THE Y INTERCEPT (b)
\n" ); document.write( "4=7*3/3+b
\n" ); document.write( "4=7+b
\n" ); document.write( "b=4-7
\n" ); document.write( "b=-3 THIS IS THE Y INTERCEPT.
\n" ); document.write( "Y=7X/3-3 IS THIS LINE EQUATION THROUGH THE POINTS (3,4)(0,-3).
\n" ); document.write( "\"+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+7x%2F3+-3%29+\" (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, 7x/3 -3).
