Write the equation of a line given a slope and a point the line runs through

The video tutorial explains how to write the equation of a line by identifying the slope and Y-intercept. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the Y-intercept as the point where the X value is zero. The tutorial guides students through solving for the Y-intercept using given points and demonstrates how to handle fractions in the process. The video concludes with writing the final equation of the line and encourages students to ask questions if needed.
