no it is different
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
When it is a line through the origin.
The slope-intercept form of an equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Without the specific equation, it is not possible to determine the values of m and b for the slope-intercept form.
Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8).
the slope of a line is 9/5 the y intercept is -4, express the equation of the line in point slope form
Here is how to solve it. First, find the slope of the given line. To do this, solve the equation for "y". That will convert the equation to the slope-intercept form. From there, you can immediately read off the slope. Since parallel lines have the same slope, the line you are looking for will have the same slope. Now you need to use the point-slope form of the equation, with the given point, and the slope you just calculated. Finally, solve this equation for "y" to bring it into the requested slope-intercept form.
You use point-slope form to find the equation of a line if you only have a point and a slope or if you are just given two point. Usually you will convert point-slope form to slope-intercept form to make it easier to use.
The equation y=6x+1 is in "slope intercept" form. This form is y=mx+b and b is the y intercept and m is the slope. This means we can read the slope and the intercept directly from the equation with no calculations. The slope is 6 and the y intercept is 1 ( or the point (0,1) is you prefer)
Slope Intercept form is meant for a line, so if you know the slope m in the equation y=mx+b then with a given point say (3,4) and say the slope of the line was 2 then the equation would read y=2x+4.
The general form of the slope-intercept equation is y = mx + b. In that equation, the slope is m and the y intercept is b.
The slope-intercept form of an equation is: y = mx + b Just copy down this equation, then replace "m" with the slope, and "b" with the y-intercept.
Slope: -3 Point: (4, -5) Equation: y = -3x+7
