1 Holt McDougal Algebra 1 5-8 Point-Slope Form Graph a line and write a linear equation using point-slope form. Write a linear equation given two points. Objectives

2 Holt McDougal Algebra 1 5-8 Point-Slope Form If you know the slope and any point on the line, you can write an equation of the line by using the slope formula. For example, suppose a line has a slope of 3 and contains (2, 1). Let (x, y) be any other point on the line. Substitute into the slope formula. Multiply both sides by (x - 2). Simplify.

8 Holt McDougal Algebra 1 5-8 Point-Slope Form In Lesson 5-7, you graphed a line given its equation in slope-intercept form. You can also graph a line when given its equation in point-slope form. Start by using the equation to identify a point on the line. Then use the slope of the line to identify a second point.

9 Holt McDougal Algebra 1 5-8 Point-Slope Form Additional Example 2A: Using Point-Slope Form to Graph y – 1 = 2(x – 3) Graph the line described by the equation. y – 1 = 2(x – 3) is in the form y – y 1 = m(x – x 1 ). The line contains the point (3, 1). Step 2 Count 2 units up and 1 unit right and plot another point. Step 1 Plot (3, 1). Step 3 Draw the line connecting the two points. (1,3) (2,5)

13 Holt McDougal Algebra 1 5-8 Point-Slope Form Write the equation that describes each line in slope-intercept form. Additional Example 3A: Writing Linear Equations in Slope-Intercept Form Slope = 3, (–1, 4) is on the line. Step 1 Write the equation in point-slope form: y – 4 = 3[x – (–1)] Step 2 Write the equation in slope-intercept form by solving for y. y – 4 = 3(x + 1) Rewrite subtraction of negative numbers as addition. Distribute 3 on the right side. y – 4 = 3x + 3 + 4 + 4 y = 3x + 7 Add 4 to both sides. y – y 1 = m(x – x 1 )
