Finding the equation of a line given a point and a slope

The video tutorial explains how to find the equation of a line given a slope and a point. It covers both graphical and algebraic methods, focusing on the slope-intercept form of a line equation, y = mx + b. The instructor demonstrates how to identify the slope and Y-intercept, solve for missing parts algebraically, and write the final equation. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the components of the equation and applying them to find the line's equation through a given point.
