Writing Equations in Point- Slope Form
Objectives Write the equation of a line in point-slope form. Write linear equations in different forms.
Warm-Up What is the equation for a line that goes through (2, 3) and (7, 5)?
Study Question 1: Write an equation given slope and a point Write the point-slope form of an equation for a line that passes through (-1,5) with slope -3.
Study Question 2 Write the point-slope form of an equation for a horizontal line that passes through (6,- 2).
Study Question 4: Write an equation in slope-intercept form Write in slope-intercept form
Concept summary Slope-Intercept: y=mx+b Point-Slope: y-y 1 =m(x-x 1 ) Standard Form: Ax+By=C (from chapter 4)
