Point slope Form

Front

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

Back

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

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

Back

To convert from slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) to point-slope form (y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)), identify a point (x₁, y₁) on the line and use the slope m.

Front

Given the point (3, 2) and slope m = 4, write the equation in point-slope form.

Back

y - 2 = 4(x - 3)
