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.
A line expressed in slope intercet fom looks like this:y = mx + bwhere m is the slope (rise over run) and b is the place on the y axis where the line crosses. Your line crosses the y axis at -3 [point (0,-3)]Your line has a slope of -6.To plot your line, start at (0,-3) then move down 6 and right 1 to find your next point at (1,-9).
Slope!
In the standard form of a linear equation:y = mx + bm is the slope* * * * *The above is the slope-intercept form, not the standard form, which isax + by + c = 0The standard form can be converted to the slope intercept form by rearranging, as follows:by = -ax - cso y = -(a/b)x -(c/b)And then, the slope (or gradient) is (-a/b).
The slope-intercept form of an equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Without the specific equation, it is not possible to determine the values of m and b for the slope-intercept form.
