What is the point-slope form of a linear equation?

Back

The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

How do you convert from point-slope form to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert from point-slope form (y - y1 = m(x - x1)) to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), solve for y.

What does the slope (m) represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Given the point (3, 2) and slope -2, write the equation in point-slope form.

Back

y - 2 = -2(x - 3)
