According to the question, you HAVE the point!
Point Slope form is important because it can give us another set of coordinate pairs when we are only given one. When you have the two coordinate pairs, we are able to find the slope of the line using Y2-Y1 ------- X2-X1 Note: The slope is used to find how much y changes(increase/decreases) when x increases by one.
To find the slope, you must have at least two points, not one. You cannot find the slope at one point, because coordinate points do not have slopes - lines have slopes.
the deivative of a function is the gradient, at a point if you can sub in the x coordinate for that point
To put it in the simplest form, a slope in a co-ordinate system is the measurement of a line. In finding the slope of a given line, you can describe and calculate its incline or steepness. To find the slope of any line, a given and proper formula should be followed: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) m being the slope of the line (x2, y2) being the co-ordinates of the second point on the line (x1, y1) being the co-ordinates of the first point on the given line. Note that 'a' can also represent the slope.

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.

Slope of a Curve A number which is used to indicate the steepness of a curve at a particular point.The slope of a curve at a point is defined to be the slope of the tangent line. Thus the slope of a curve at a point is found using the derivative
Use point-slope formula
If the slope is 2/3 and the coordinate is (2, -1) then the straight line equation is 3y=2x-7

It is impossible to figure it out with just one coordinate and no line. Maybe your line extends through the x and y system and you were given one coordinate. Take that coordinate and find the rise over run (slope). Follow that rise over run all the way to the y-axis. Whatever point you are on once you hit the y-axis that is the y-intercept.
To find the slope (steepness, not height) of a line when given two points, do the following: Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), where (x1, y1) is one point, and (x2,y2) is the second point.
