Algebra 22 - Point-Slope Form

Professor Von Schmohawk introduces linear equations, focusing on the slope-intercept and point-slope forms. The video explains the components of each form, how to derive the point-slope form, and provides examples of writing equations using both forms. It also demonstrates converting between the two forms, highlighting their equivalence and when each is useful.
