Point-slope form is written as: y-y1=m(x-x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope (hence the name, point-slope form).
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.
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.
Given a point P(a,b) and slope m, the point slope equation is (y - b)/(x - a) = m
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
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.

no it is different
point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1). x1 and y1 are both points and m is the slope.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).

The point slope form of a line is one that contains the point and the slope. It is (y-y1)=m(x-x1) Where (x1,y1) are the point on the line that you are given. The other (x,y) are any x and y and m is the slope. So if we have a point (1,2) just for example, and a slope m=3, then the point slope equation or form is (y-2)=3(x-1) Note: The point slope form is easy to remember. It comes directly from the definition of slope. The slope is the rise over the run, of (change in y values) divided (change in x values) Now call the slope m, and let a point we know be (x1,y1) and any other point on the line (x,y), then the slope is m=(y-y1)/(x-x1). Now multiply both sides by (x-x1) and you have the point slope form.
Point: (2, -1) Slope: -5 Equation: y = -5x+9
If: slope is 3 and point is (1, 4) Then: y = 3x+1
