Writing the equation of a line review

By Keegan Kuhlman

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

It's called point-slope because you need a _____ and the __________.

​Point- Slope Formula:

Write the equation of the line...

That passes through the point (-1,4) and has a slope of 2.

Hint: Label everything you are substituting so it goes in the right spot!

That passes through the points (3,0) and (-5, -2)

Write the equation of the line...
