Given a point P(a,b) and slope m, the point slope equation is
(y - b)/(x - a) = m
Point slope form is standard form. To change point slope form into general form, simply multiply both sides by the denominator of the slope, and move everything onto one side.
No line described, but here is the point slope form. Y - Y1 = m(X - X1) =============
The point-slope formula of a straight line is expressed as (y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)), where (m) is the slope and ((x_1, y_1)) is a specific point on the line. In contrast, the slope-intercept form is given by (y = mx + b), where (b) represents the y-intercept, the point where the line crosses the y-axis. Essentially, the point-slope form is used to write the equation of a line given a point and its slope, while the slope-intercept form is used to express the line in terms of its slope and y-intercept.
You need either a point and the slope of the line or two points. Then you use the point slope form of the line or the slope intercept form to write the lines.A given point has an infinite number of lines going through it, that is why you need more information.
To write the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), we start with the slope (m) of 2 and the point (3, 7). We can use the point to find the y-intercept (b). Substituting the point into the equation gives us 7 = 2(3) + b, which simplifies to 7 = 6 + b. Thus, b = 1, and the equation in slope-intercept form is y = 2x + 1.
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
Point slope form is standard form. To change point slope form into general form, simply multiply both sides by the denominator of the slope, and move everything onto one side.

The answe iss..... 6
y = 2x - 1
It is: y = 2x-6
y=2x+1
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.
