for example suppose you were given the equation y=2x+1, first you should know that x is the horizontal part of the line therefore you can substitute x with any value. So for example you replaced 6 with x, You multiply 2 times 6 and then add 1
so now know that y is 13 so you arrange both of the x and the y values like this 6,13
Y=2X+1 X=6
y= 2(6)+1=13 x,y= 6,13

How do you determine whether a point is on a given line or not?
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. If the equation is still valid then the point is on the line; if not then it is not.
Writing an equation given a slope and a point?
If the slope m is given at a point (xo, yo) of a line, then the equation of the line is given by: y - yo = m(x - xo)
Find an equation of the line containing the given point and having the given slope 3-6m1?
Assuming the point is (3, -6) and the slope 1, the equation is x - y - 9 = 0
How does using the point - slope form of a linear equation make it easier to write the equation of a line?
If given simply the slope of a line and a point through which it passes, and then told to find the equation of the line, one of the easiest ways of doing so is to use the point-slope formula.

How do write an equation of a line when given the slope a point of the line?
if a line has a slope of -2 and a point on the line has coordinates of (3, -5) write an equation for the line in point slope form
Find equation perpendicular to given line contain given point?
If you know the slope of the line that your equation is perpendicular too, you find the negative reciprocal of it and use it as the slope for the line. (negative reciprocal = flip the slope over and change its sign. Ex: a slope of 2 has a negative reciprocal of -1/2. ) Then you use the given point, and put your equation in point-slope form. The general equation for point slope form is Y-y1=m(x-x1) The y1 is the y coordinate of the given point. X1 is the x coordinate of the given point. M is the slope that you found earlier. You now have your equation. If you are asked to put it in slope intercept form, simply distribute the numbers and solve the equation for y.
Find the equation of the line passing through the given point and perpendicular to the given line (5, 9); x-5y=8?
y = -(1/5)x + 9
How can you check if a point is on a given line?
Improved Answer:Find the equation of the line that is given.Check to see if the coordinates of the point satisfy the equation of the line.-411LeonOld Answer:Don't ask us!!
What is an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line?
