If you know one point on a graph and you also know the slope of the graph, you can use the point-slope equation to create the y-intercept form of the line. Doing this will allow you to plug in values for x or y to get any point on the graph.
For example, say that the slope of the line is 2 and a point on the line is (3,2). The point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1). Plug in (3,2) and the slope to get y - 2 = 2(x - 3). That simplifies to y = 2x - 4. I want to see what y-value falls on the line at x = 5, so I plug that in. I get y = 6. That means that there is also the point (5,6) on the graph.
A point doesn't have a slope. A line has.To get the second point, you add coordinates in the ratio 2:1 (2 "y" for every "x") to your original point. For example, you can add 2 to the y-coordinate, and 1 to the x-coordinate; or twice or three times as much.
Slope. I'm pretty sure.

There is no general answer to this question. If the line slope is undefined, it can be zero, corresponding to a horizontal line, and in that instance no other point on the line has both whole number coordinates lower than 5 6 because every point on the line has 6 as its second coordinate. If the slope is undefined because the line is vertical, every point on the line will have a first coordinate of 5. Furthermore, it is possible in principle to draw a line with a slope equal to some irrational number through the point 5 6 that never has integers for both coordinates at any other point.
In coordinate geometry, each point in the plane is identified by an ordered pair, (x,y) which are known as the coordinates of the point. The equation of any straight line in the coordinate plane can be written in the form y = mx + c so that the coordinates of each point on the line satisfies this equation (and the coordinates of a point outside the line doed not satisfies it). The equation in this form is known as the slope-intercept form. m is the slope and c is the intercept.
The point with the given coordinates does not lie on the curve and so the question makes no sense.

Two coordinates define a point. You need two pairs of two coordinates to define two points and, therefore, a slope.

If point a has coordinates (x1,y1), and point b has coordinates (x2, y2), then the slope of the line is given by the formula: m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
(y - y1) = m*(x - x1) where (x1, y1) are the coordinates of a point on the line and , is 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
You need two coordinates, not one, to specify a point. To calculate the slope, simply calculate (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates).
