Writing in Point-Slope Form 1

What is the point-slope formula for a linear equation?

• $m\ =\ \frac{y_{2\ }-\ y_1}{x_{2\ }-\ x_1}$

• y = mx + b

• $y\ -\ y_{1\ }=\ m\ \left(\ x\ -\ x_{1\ }\right)$

• Ax + By = C

What is the slope-intercept formula for a linear equation?

• y = mx + b

• Ax + By = C

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the coordinate (3,4) and has a slope of 2.

• y - 4 = 2 ( x - 3 )

• y - 4 = 3 ( x - 2 )

• y - 3 = 2 ( x - 4 )

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the coordinate (8,2) and has a slope of -2/3.

• y - 8 = -2/3 ( x - 2 )

• y - 2 = -2/3 ( x - 8 )

• y - 2 = 2/3 ( x + 8 )

• y + 8 = 2/3 ( x - 2 )
