Writing Linear Equations Using Slope and Point

Start with the modified â€œpoint-slopeâ€ formula:

y = m(x â€“ x₁) + y₁

and simplify to the â€œslope-interceptâ€ form of the linear equation:

y = m x + b

We will find that one of three things happen when we seek to write the equation of a line:

1. We are given the slope m and the y-intercept: y = b or (0, b) .

Write: y = m x + b.

2. We are given the slope m and a point (x₁, y₁).

Write: y = m(x â€“ x₁) + y₁

Simplify to y = m x + b.

3. We are given two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). Find m.
