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.

Given a point P(a,b) and slope m, the point slope equation is (y - b)/(x - a) = m
No line described, but here is the point slope form. Y - Y1 = m(X - X1) =============
In standard form, there is no slope for three numbers.
in the equation y=mx+b where y is the y-axis, x is the x-axis, m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. You can also write the equation in standard fore, or point-slope form.
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.
