When should you use the slope-intercept form?

When you are trying to graph an equation.


Why do you use y-intercept for b in the slope intercept form?

If the slope-intercept equation is in the form: y = mx + b then the y-coordinate of the intercept is b


How do you use slope intercept form with just the y intercept?

You cannot.


When creating a line using the slope-intercept form always plot atleast three?

In the case that you are using Slope-Intercept Form, no, you only plot two points: the y-intercept and one other point. If you don't use Slope-Intercept Form, then you have to use three points.


Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than slope-intercept form?

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.


How do you use slope intercept form?

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept. x and y are variables


What jobs would you use slope intercept form in?

an accountant


Write an equation of the line that has a slope of -7 and y intercept 6 in slope intercept form?

Use the slope-intercept form of the line: y = mx + b Here, "m" is the slope, and "b" is the y-intercept, so just replace these variables with the corresponding slope and intercept - and you got your equation. And PLEASE don't ask lots of almost-identical questions, with different slopes and y-intercept. It is really easy to replace the slope and the intercept in this equation.


When is it good to use a slope formula?

When formatting the equation of a given line into slope-intercept form.


How can you use slope intercept form to write an equation of a line givven its slope and y intercept?

y intercept is b and slope is m Equation is y = mx + b For example if y intercept (where x = 0) is -3 and slope is 4 then y = 4x-3


How do you find slope intercept form when given coordinates?

Use: (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) to find the slope. Use: y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the slope intercept equation whereas m is the slope.


Can you use a graph to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?

Yes
