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

The slope is the coefficient of (x - x1) in the point-slope form equation.

Front

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

Back

y - 2 = 3(x - 4)
