How do you find an equation with a given slope?
Use point-slope formula
What is the point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through the point (1 4) and has a slope of and minus3?
Point: (1, 4) Slope: -3 Equation: y = -3x+7
Given point (-6 -2) and a slope of 5 what is the equation in slope form?
Point: (-6, -2) Slope: 5 Equation: y = 5x+28
What is the point-slope form of a line with slope 3 that contains the point (21)?
If you mean a point of: (2,1) then the equation works out as y = 3x-5
Who invented slope-intercept form?
Renee Descartes discovered the slope intercept formula: y=mx+b
What is the formula for point slope form?
Y-y1=m(x-x1)
What is the point slope formula?
Point Slope Formula: y-y1 = m(x - x1)
Is point slope form the same as equation of a line?
yes the formula is y=mx+b
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.
Linear equations in point slope form?
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).
How do you write point slope form in standard 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.
How do you find an equation with a given slope?
Use point-slope formula
What is formula of equation of a line?
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.The point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1).The standard form is Ax + By = C. It is not unique for any line.
What do you need to use the point slope formula?
The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.
Is the point slope equation the same as the point slope intercept form?
no it is different
How does using the point-slope form of a linear equation make it easier to write the equation of a line?
If given simply the slope of a line and a point through which it passes, and then told to find the equation of the line, one of the easiest ways of doing so is to use the point-slope formula.
