Which part of this is giving you difficulty? Are you having trouble clicking on an item in a list or group of pictures? Are you having trouble holding the button down? Does your problem have something to do with dragging an item either to a correct position in an answer box or to a trash can? Is clicking the trash can the bump in your road? Or is there something about deriving the standard form of an equation of a line that passes through a given pair of points? I can help you with that last thing, but why do I have to wade through all of that other garbage to get to the point?

Two Point Form:



where and are the coordinates of the given points.

Rearrange to Standard form:



Some teachers/professors/instructors/math textbook authors insist that , , and be integers with no common factors and that .
