Point intercept form is the almighty form that governs all equations in mathematics involving the variables "X" and "Y", when "X" refers to the independent variable and "Y" refers to the dependent variable. It is the mother of all forms, the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end...... But seriously, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE POINT-INTERCEPT FORM!!!! There IS point-slope form as well as slope-intercept form, but NO point-intercept form.

Can you change point slope intercept form?
Yes.
How do you figure out the y intercept in slope intercept form?
The slope intercept form is y = mx + c where the coefficient of y must be 1. Then c is the y-intercept ie the point (0,c) lies on the line.
What is point slope form and slope intercept form?
y=mx+b is slope-intercept form y - y1 = m(x - x1) is point-slope form Used in algebra based math. On a graph; m is the slope b is the y-intercept x and y represent points
When creating a line using the slope-intercept form always plot atleast three?
In the case that you are using Slope-Intercept Form, no, you only plot two points: the y-intercept and one other point. If you don't use Slope-Intercept Form, then you have to use three points.
Where is the point where a line croses the y axis?
The point is called the y-intercept and will be in the form (0, Y).
Can you change point slope intercept form?
Yes.
What is point intercept form?
Point slope? y=mx+b M being the slope, and b being the y-intercept.
Is the point slope equation the same as the point slope intercept form?
no it is different
Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than 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.
How do you figure out the y intercept in slope intercept form?
The slope intercept form is y = mx + c where the coefficient of y must be 1. Then c is the y-intercept ie the point (0,c) lies on the line.

What does intercept mean in the expression slope-intercept form?
It means the point at which the straight line cuts through the y axis.
When creating a line using the slope-intercept form always plot atleast three?
In the case that you are using Slope-Intercept Form, no, you only plot two points: the y-intercept and one other point. If you don't use Slope-Intercept Form, then you have to use three points.
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).
Where is the point where a line croses the y axis?
The point is called the y-intercept and will be in the form (0, Y).
What is the general form of a line written in slope-intercept form?
The general form of a line written in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis).
How do you graph a line in slope intercept for?
1) You write the equation in slope-intercept form, if it isn't in that form already. 2) An easy way to graph it is to start with the y-intercept. For example, if the intercept is +5, you graph the point (0, 5). Then you add an additional point, according to the slope. For example, if the slope is 1/2, you go 2 units to the right, and one up, and graph a point there.
