When it is a line through the origin.
Point-slope form is just another way to express a linear equation. It uses two (any two points that fall on the line) and the slope of the line (Therefore the name point-slope form).y2 - y1 = m(x2 - x1)...with m as the slope.
No line described, but here is the point slope form. Y - Y1 = m(X - X1) =============
The equation of the line will also depend on its slope which has not been given and so an answer is not possible.
You can have infinitely many lines through one specific point, each with a different equation. If you want to have a general equation for ANY line that goes through that point, use the point-slope equation for a line, and use a variable for the slope.
if a line has a slope of -2 and a point on the line has coordinates of (3, -5) write an equation for the line in point slope form
When it is a line through the origin.
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
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.
Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2, -8).
Point-slope form is just another way to express a linear equation. It uses two (any two points that fall on the line) and the slope of the line (Therefore the name point-slope form).y2 - y1 = m(x2 - x1)...with m as the slope.
the slope of a line is 9/5 the y intercept is -4, express the equation of the line in point slope form
