Point-Slope Form

Graph the y-intercept, then use the slope to move.

Divide to find the x- and y-intercepts.

Graph the given point, then move according to slope.

y - 2 = 5(x - 2)

3x + 2y = 12

y + 2 = 1/4(x + 4)

y = 4x + 6

2y = 5x - 7

Plot the point (−3,−2), move up 1 and right 3 units from there.

Plot the point (3,2), move up 1 and left 3 units from there.

Plot the point (3,2), move up 1 and right 3 units from there.

Plot the point (2,3), move up 1 and right 3 units from there.
