The equation of a line passing through a point P with coordinates (a,b) and slope m is
(y-b) = m(x-a)
changing that to the more conventional form:
y = mx + (b - ma)

How do you write the point-slope form of an equation of the line described?
No line described, but here is the point slope form. Y - Y1 = m(X - X1) =============
How do you write an equation in slope intercept form if there is no slope?
If you have any expression that defines a line, you can find the slope of the line. After you have found the slope of the line, you can then write an expression describing the line in slope intercept form. You can't define a slope-intercept form for any nonlinear equation, because the slope is always* changing; there are often several intercepts as well.
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
Write in slope intercept form the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point?
Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8).
How would you write an equation of a line in standard form?
the formula for standard form is Ax+By=C
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point 1 1?
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
Can you use a graph to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?
Yes

How do you write one and a third in decimal form?
you write a 1 and a dot next to it and a 3 with a horizontal line above the 3
How do you write an equation of a line that passes through the xintercep and yintercept?
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
