Point-Slope Form

Front

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

Back

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

Front

How do you identify the slope from a point-slope equation?

Back

In the point-slope form y - y1 = m(x - x1), the slope m is the coefficient of (x - x1).

Front

Given the point (2, 3) and a slope of 4, write the point-slope form of the equation.

Back

y - 3 = 4(x - 2)
