Point Slope Form

Which equation is in point-slope form for the line that contains the point (5, - 1)?

• y - 5 = 1(x + 3)

• y + 5 = 2(x - 1)

• y - 3 = -1(x + 5)

• y + 1 = 2(x - 5)

What is the equation in Point-Slope form of the line that goes through the point (6,1) and has a slope of -3?

• y - 6 = -3(x - 1)

• y + 6 = -3(x + 1)

• y - 1 = -3(x - 6)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 3)

What point is on the line: y - 5 = 3 ( x + 2 )?

• (-5, 2)

• (2, -5)

• (3, 2)

• (-2, 5)

What is the name of this formula?

• Point-Slope Form

• Slope-Intercept Form

Why might a person use a point-slope formula?

• The graph's has no slope

• The graph's line does not cross the y-intercept

• The graph's line does not cross the y-intercept at a whole number (easy to work with)

• The graph does not any a (x, y) points

• 2

• 4

• -6

• -2

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y + 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

Write the equation of the line in Point-Slope form that goes through the point (10,5) and has a slope of -3

• y= -3x + 35

• y + 5= -3(x + 10)

• y= -3x - 35

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
