Slope Intercept and Point Slope Forms of Lines
y – y1 = m(x – x1) is the Point-Slope Form of a linewhere (x1, y1) is a point the line passes throughand "m" is the slope of the line.
y = mx + b is the Slope-Intercept form of a line"m" is the slope, and "b" is the y-intercept.
Practice with Point Slope and 
Slope Intercept Forms of Lines

Select the Point-Slope form of a line

Ax + By = C

y = mx + b

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Select the Slope-Intercept form of a line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Ax + By = C

y = mx + b

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:


given a y-intercept of 3 and a slope of -2.

y = 
y = mx + b
x + 

Write the equation of the line in point-slope form, 

of the line passing through the point: 


(4, 2) and with a slope of 5.

y –      =      (x –       )
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Write the equation of the line in point-slope form, 
of the line passing through the point: 


(-3, 1) and with a slope of ½.

y –      =         (x +      )
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Write the equation of the line in

point-slope form:


given  (-1,8) and the slope of 2.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Write the equation of the same line in slope-intercept form:
Write the equation of the line in point-slope form:

passing through  (0, 5) with a slope of 3.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y = mx + b
Determine the slope of the line.

Given the slope of 1/4 and the graph,

what is the equation of the line?

 y = 4x + 1

 y - 1 = ¼(x - 2) 

 y - 2 = ¼(x - 1)

 y - 1 = 4(x - 2)

y = mx + b

Rewrite in slope intercept form:

 

y - 3 = 2(x - 5)
Choose the equation of the graph
y = (2/3)x
y = (-2/3)x
y = (-3/2)x
y = (3/2)x
y-intercept =
