1. Find the equation of the line which passes through the points (5,1) and has a slope of .5. In this case the slope and one set of coordinates are known. This case involves the use of the point-slope ...

In this case both the slope and the y intercept are known and the equation can be written directly. For example if the slope is -2 and the y intercept is (0,6), then the equation is In this case the ...

The point slope form equation is a way to write the equation of a line when you know the slope of the line and the coordinates of one point on the line. You express a point slope form equation as ...
