( 2/3, 0 )
( 0, -5/7 )
slope = [ change in y ] / [ change in x ]
+m+=+%28%28+-5%2F7+-+0+%29%29+%2F+%28%28+0+-+2%2F3+%29%29+
+m+=+%28%285%2F7%29%29%2F%28%282%2F3%29%29+
+m+=+15%2F14+
-------------------------
slope intercept form:
+y+=+%2815%2F14%29%2Ax+-+5%2F7+
--------------------------
standard form:
+14y+=+15x+-+10+
+15x+-+14y+=+10+
